Youzhny comes to win a clay-specialist as Fabio Fognini and I think he is adapted to the court. He played only one game last week and came to Madrid in mid-week to prepare the tourney.
His h2h against Almagro is 4-0 and they will play in "Arantxa Sanchez Vicario" court wich is the fastest of the tourey. This fact benefits Youzhny but the most important is that Almagro has withdrawn yesterday of doubles game with a hip injury.
His coach Antonio Cascales said: "The injury was very curious since suffered last night while dining at trying to prevent dropped a glass and it will stain and jump from the chair felt pain. Has been removed from the double because the pain remained. Tonight he has had an ultrasound has ruled out any type of injury but the state will jump tomorrow is a mystery."
In each case he can't be at 100% and I think this odd have high value and will drop sure.
Almagro only defends points of the 3rd round reached last year here and if he has any pain, I haven't any doubt, he'll withdraw.
