Brandon Nakashima vs Ben Shelton Prediction & Betting Tips - ATP Indian Wells
by Daniel Ngulu | in ATP Indian Wells Predictions
Ben Shelton, the 11th seed at the 2025 BNP Paribas Open will face off with Brandon Nakashima next. The two will clash in the fourth round, the fourth meeting between them. From this, the winner will meet Jack Draper or Taylor Fritz next, and we have a prediction for the match.
Nakashima, making a fifth Indian Wells appearance, is coming off a 2-0 win over Italian Matteo Arnaldi. That win maintained his good run here, having not dropped a set yet.
Before this season, he had never made it past the second round but now has the chance to reach the last eight. His fifth win in six improved his record so far to 8-6.
Like Nakashima, Shelton also powered his way to this round with a second straight-set win. He saw off Karen Khachanov in the third round, having earlier eliminated Mariano Navone.
Shelton has now compiled a 9-4 record for the season and will feel confident going into this match. The American leads Nakashima on the head-to-head front, having won each of their three meetings.
The most recent of them was this year at the Australian Open, for the third time, Shelton winning in straight sets.
He has never made it to the Indian Wells quarter-finals and this will be a major motivator.

Our Brandon Nakashima vs Ben Shelton Prediction
For the third time in their history, these two Americans meet on home soil, having last met at the Australian Open. Ben Shelton has definitely been the dominant one winning all the previous three encounters. In his wins, one which came on clay, Shelton never dropped a set.
That should give him a psychological end against Nakashima, who is also on a good run ahead of this match. All of Shelton’s four wins in his last six matches were in straight sets and there’s a chance he’ll extend the same here. Our prediction for Brandon Nakashima v Ben Shelton is for Ben Shelton to win in straight sets.
