1Target the weaker defensive side in the Gutierrez/Oria pairing with heavy, deep lobs and quick follow-up volleys to force short balls and create first-strike overheads (Bergamini to construct, Garrido to finish).
2Serve/return priority: Bergamini must neutralize on return with low, chipped blocks to the middle and feet; Garrido should attack second serves with aggressive forehand returns to win net position quickly and avoid extended side-to-side exchanges.
3Protect against counter-punching: when ahead in rallies, use disciplined high-percentage bandejas/víboras to the backhand corner and avoid overhitting through the middle—Riyadh’s faster bounce rewards clean finishing but also magnifies unforced-error runs.
