Roman Safiullin vs Sebastian Korda Prediction: Roman is underrated

Prediction for the ATP Indian Wells Roman Safiullin vs Sebastian Korda match which will take place on March 10th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

In the first round, Roman was stronger than Evans, although we had bet on Daniel. The match against Evans lasted almost two hours, and Safiullin won 6:1, 5:7, 6:2. The Russian made 11 aces against five double faults and won 76% of the points on his first serve and 56% on his second. Return statistics: 30%/62%. Before the Masters in California, Safiullin failed to cut at two tournaments in Mexico, Los Cabos and Acapulco.

The match will be Korda's first at the Masters, as the American has yet to play a set in March. Korda's last tournament was in Dubai, where the American reached the quarter-finals but failed to finish his match against Rublev, losing 4:6, 3:4 in favor of the Russian. Before the meeting, Korda knocked out Kotov and Van de Zandschulp.

Roman is underrated. Safiullin played a good-quality match against Evans, who is not an easy opponent for the Russian. On the other hand, Korda lost his only game against Safiullin and has yet to play a set in the tournament. Korda may have some problems with the surface, but we will only find out during the match. We like the underdog in this pairing, and we would not be surprised to see Roman take Korda in sets, as he did at the Rome tournament.
