Tommy Paul vs Daniil Medvedev Prediction: Medvedev will be closer to victory

Prediction for the ATP Indian Wells match which will take place on March 17. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

After the failure in Acapulco, where Tommy lost to Draper in the first match, Tommy is looking very good on the courts of the Masters in Indian Wells. The American has four wins at the tournament, and just one set lost to Norway's Casper Ruud in the quarter-final. The match against Casper lasted two hours and 11 minutes, with the scores of 6:2, 1:6, and 6:2 in favor of Tommy. During the game, the American scored five aces and two double faults, winning 72% of points on the first serve and 38% on the second.

To be honest, we are surprised that Daniil so confidently beat Holger Rune of Denmark in the quarter-finals. The match against Rune lasted exactly two hours and Daniil won it 7:5, 6:4. During the game the Russian made four aces and one double fault, won 68 per cent of points on first serve and 62 per cent on second serve. Before defeating Rune, Daniil Medvedev knocked out Carballes Baena, Korda and Dimitrov, losing only one set during the tournament, it is obvious that Medvedev is in great shape.

In this pairing, we are on the side of the favorite. Medvedev is not only in great form, as confirmed by his matches against Dimitrov and Rune but also has a positive record against Tommy Paul; the Russian has beaten the American twice in his career, including in September 2023 on hard court in Beijing. We believe that Medvedev will win convincingly on Saturday night.
