Del Potro, 33, will play for the first time in an ATP tournament in two years and half, after battling with a knee injury. The Argentinian, winner of the US Open 2009, said in a press conference on Saturday that this could be his last tournament, as he is still experiencing a lot of pain. “It might not be like that and maybe it’s more of a farewell than a comeback,” he said of his planned tournament play.

On the other hand, Delbonis, seed no. 6, it’s coming to this match after short appearances at the Australian Open and the Cordoba Open, losing both in the first round against the Spaniards Pedro Martínez and Carlos Taberner, respectively. At the Argentina Open, Delbonis reached the semi-finals in 2018.
