by Daniel Ngulu | in ATP Indian Wells Predictions
Carlos Alcaraz’s title defence at Indian Wells continues with a third round match against Denis Shapovalov. This will be the two players’ second meeting but the first on a hardcourt. We have a prediction, with the winner set to meet Grigor Dimitrov or Gael Monfils next.
Both these players are coming off straight-set wins, with Shapovalov beating Adam Walton. With that, the Canadian’s season improved to 11-4 and he will be confident of causing the biggest shock at this event.
Shapovalov is eyeing his second title of the year after winning in Dallas. He also had a semi-final run at Acapulco and now seeks to match his best run at Indian Wells with a win against Alcaraz.
Alcaraz will not be an easy match though. The Spaniard is seeking his third Indian Wells title and this quest had a flying start.
He beat Quentin Halys 6-4, 6-2 in the second round and will be eyeing a second win against Shapovalov. Beating Halys improved his season to 12-2.
Alcaraz graced the Australian Open quarters, reached the Doha quarter-finals and has never lost a third round match at Indian Wells.
The two players’ only meeting so far was on clay, in the third round of the French Open in 2023, won by Alcaraz. Like Shapovalov, Alcaraz has one title to his name this season – Rotterdam.
