Last week Alcaraz triumphed in Buenos Aires, defeating Cameron Norrie in the final. By the way, Cameron came to the tournament in Brazil as well. In Rio, the Spaniard played one match and, with some difficulty, defeated local WC winner Mateus Alves, No. 556. The match lasted almost two hours. Alcaraz won 6-4, 6-4. He made four aces and four doubles faults, winning 74% of his first serve points and only 47% of his second, reception stats were 37%/65%. Carlos was unimpressive in his first match in Rio, but he may be more confident in his second one.
Fabio Fognini
Fognini was a bust in Buenos Aires, losing his first match to Djere in two games. In Rio, he was already better than in Argentina, beating the Chilean Barrios in two sets 6-2, 6-3 in an hour and a half. Fabio's statistics in that game were 3/2 aces/doubles, 71%/42% of points won on serve, and 47%/57 points on reception. Fognini suffered setbacks before Rio, not only in Buenos Aires but also in Australia, Adelaide, and Melbourne.
Expert Betting Tips
The first match in Rio could have been better for Carlos. Many people expected him to defeat the little-known Brazilian, but the game turned out rather persistent. Meanwhile, Carlos got some practice on the local courts. We believe he will win his next matches with more confidence. Carlos knows Fognini as he beat the Italian a year ago in Rio. Since then, Fabio has not become stronger; rather, his results have faded, and Alcaraz has even hit the top of the ATP rankings. We believe that Carlos will achieve a confident victory - Fabio has nothing to offer to his opponent.
