Day 3 at the ATP 250 event in Athens won’t yet feature Lorenzo Musetti’s bid for a place in Turin. Still, it will undoubtedly feature plenty of great matches and high-quality tennis, with everyone looking to end their season on a high note and set up a big 2025. Djokovic is the biggest name in the draw by far and will be playing this Tuesday, but there’s plenty else to look forward to as well in the Greek capital. But who will advance?

ATP Athens Day 3 Predictions
Mackenzie McDonald vs Tomas Martin Etcheverry

Head-to-head: first meeting

Etcheverry might be the far more highly ranked player, but on a hard court, the difference in level and ability on paper is quite small. McDonald certainly has enough ability to pull through and should at least make this a very tough encounter for Etcheverry. Still, ultimately, the Argentine is the more solid and consistent player at the moment and should be able to pull through here.

Prediction: Etcheverry in 3

Marcos Giron vs Pedro Martinez

Head-to-head: first meeting

Both players are going through terrible streaks at the moment, with Martinez losing his last six matches and Giron his last seven. This is basically the last opportunity for both to end the season on a good note, and both will be trying their best to do so. On clay, it would be a completely different story, but on an indoor hard court, Giron has an obvious edge on paper and should prevail here.

Sebastian Korda vs Damir Dzumhur

Head-to-head: first meeting

Korda has struggled with injuries in 2025, but his level is well above what his current ranking suggests. He belongs in the top 20, and it feels like a matter of time before his results start reflecting that again. Dzumhur certainly isn’t an easy opponent, but Korda has an excellent opportunity to finish the season strong here.

Prediction: Korda in 3
