Alejandro Davidovich Fokina vs Rodrigo Pacheco Mendez Prediction & Picks - ATP Acapulco Open
by Lou Aguila | in Tennis Picks
Davidovich Fokina of Spain will shoot for his second straight semifinal appearance on Thursday, taking on Rodrigo Pacheco Mendez in the quarterfinal of the 2025 Acapulco Open. Fokina advanced to the quarterfinal on Wednesday with a 6-3 6-7(6) 6-3 win over Frances Tiafoe of the United States. It marked Fokina’s second consecutive three-set victory in the tournament after besting Mattia Bellucci 1-6 7-6(6) 6-2 in the first round. Pacheco Mendez was gifted with a walkover win by Casper Ruud of Norway, who begged off from the second-round match with the Mexican due to an upset stomach. This development sent Pacheco Mendez to his first quarterfinal appearance in an ATP Tour tournament. Mendez had defeated Aleksander Vukic of Australia 7-5 4-6 7-6(4), the biggest win in his career.

Our Alejandro Davidovich Fokina vs Rodrigo Pacheco Mendez Prediction
Pacheco Mendez’s Cinderella run is about to end when he faces Alejandro Fokina on Thursday. Pacheco deserves credit for beating Aleksandar Vukic in an epic three-set encounter in the first round. However, he missed a big opportunity to learn and grow after his match with the world’s No.5 Casper Ruud was scrapped at the last minute. The win sent him to the quarterfinal, unprepared for what Alejandro Fokina had in store for him. Mendez has potential and can become a regular name on tour in the coming years, but he’s nothing more than a greenhorn finding his place in a man’s world. Our betting prediction for Rodrigo Pacheco Mendez vs. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina: Davidovich Fokina will cover -6.5 games.
