Analysis and Predictions
Alcaraz is a huge favorite to grab a win in this round. He made errors in the opening game against Alexander Zverev, but there's no reason why he shouldn't do better. Andrey Rublev on the other hand, was not much of an opposition against Medvedev. Both players have been in very unstable form but we trust Alcaraz experience level to play a huge factor in this match.
