Jannik Sinner vs Carlos Alcaraz Prediction: Jannik will be closer to victory

Prediction for the ATP Indian Wells match which will take place on March 16. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

As we predicted, Jannick beat Czech Jiri Lehecka, the 32nd-ranked player in the world, very confidently. The match against Jiri lasted an hour and 28 minutes, and Sinner won it 6:3, 6:3. During the game, Jannick served three times with two double faults and won 85% of points on the first serve and 63% on the second. We pay attention to the very low number of faults of the Italian, as well as the fact that Jannick has a very long winning streak, which began in November 2023. In California, Jannik has beaten Kokkinakis, Struff, Shelton, and Lehechka.

Alcaraz beat Alexander Zverev of Germany very easily in the quarter-final of the Masters in California. The match against the German lasted only an hour and 19 minutes, and Zverev managed to take only four games in two sets. During the game, Alcaraz made one ace with zero double faults and won 87 percent of his points on the first serve and 75 percent on the second serve. Before knocking Zverev out of the tournament, Alcaraz had knocked out Arnaldi, Auger-Aliassime, and Marozsan.

We side with the Spaniard in the pairing; Alcaraz beat German Zverev very easily in the last round, although Alexander is Carlos's uncomfortable opponent. Let's not forget that Carlos won the Indian Wells tournament last season and wants to defend the title. Jannick is a formidable opponent; the Italian won his first Major of the season not so long ago and has generally been at his best in the first few months of the season. However, it is extremely difficult to stay in that tone for long, and we expect a slump for Sinner. Alcaraz, on the contrary, is on the rise, which can be seen, among other things, in his game against Alexander Zverev. We believe that the Spaniard will win, and as for the total, we hope for a long match.
