One of the favorites at Wimbledon, Matteo Berrettini will face Chilean Cristian Garin, world No. 44, in the first round of the English major. The two men have met three times on tour, though they have never played on grass. The score is 2-1 in favor of the Italian, and given Matteo's grass-court record it is not surprising that Berrettini is regarded as the big favorite to win the upcoming encounter.

Matteo was one of the brightest players of the short grass season. Before Wimbledon started, Berrettini won the two tournaments on grass he took part in. First, the Italian triumphed in Stuttgart, then won the tournament in London. The world No. 11 came to Wimbledon with a nine-match winning streak and good grass-court practice.
Cristian Garin
The Chilean has also played two grasscourt tournaments this season: in Halle and Eastbourne. But unlike Berrettini, Cristian's grass-court performance was hardly successful. In Germany, the American was weaker than Korda of the US in two sets. In England, he lost to Australia's De Minaur, also in two sets. Through, it is worth noting that last season Garin even had positive stakes statistics, 3-1.
Head-to-head encounters
Berrettini and Garin have played each other three times, the score 2-1 in favor of the Italian. Garin won the first meeting on the clay court in Munich in 2019. Five months later, Berrettini took revenge at a tournament in Shanghai. And in May 2021, he came out on top, outplaying the Chilean at the Madrid clay-court tournament in three sets.
