This is a classic contrast: Alonso/Goñi bring higher pace, legs, and first-strike pressure, while Maxi/Sanyo rely on control, disguise, and problem-solving in long rallies. In Bordeaux’s typically quicker indoor-style conditions (often rewarding serve/volley dominance), the experienced pair can neutralize with tempo changes and targeted lobs, but they’re more vulnerable if forced into repeated high-intensity transitions. Slight edge to Maxi/Sanyo if they win the net and extend points; otherwise Alonso/Goñi can overwhelm early.
