Carlos Alcaraz’s title defence at the Indian Wells enters the quarter-final stage, where he will meet Francisco Cerundolo. This will mark the third meeting between the two, but the first on a hardcourt. The winner will face Jack Draper or Ben Shelton, and here we have the preview and prediction for this match.
Cerundolo prevails on clay but at Indian Wells he has grown from strength to strength often flying under the radar. He brought his big-game mentality in the fourth round as he outclassed Alex de Minaur in straight sets.
He now has a 13-13 record against top-10 players. At Masters level, he has beaten six top-10 opponents in nine encounters.
Alcaraz will present another huge challenge for Cerundolo. The two-time defending Indian Wells champion is coming from a straight-sets win over Grigor Dimitrov.
He did it in under 1.25 hours, meaning he has spent two hours and five minutes less on the court compared to Cerundolo. It was his third 2-0 win and Alcaraz will be playing in his fourth quarter-final of the season.
His quest for a second tour title falls well in plan, having won his last 15 matches at Indian Wells. With the fourth round win, Alcaraz has now compiled a 14-2 record.
