Prediction for the ATP Indian Wells match which will take place on March 8. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Matteo Arnaldi

Before the Indian Wells Masters, the Italian played two tournaments in Mexico, beating Fritz and losing to Purcell and Shelton. In California, Arnaldi already has one win in two sets over Frenchman van Assche. The match against Luc lasted two hours and 9 minutes; Arnaldi won it in two sets on two tie-breaks. Matteo had 11 aces with zero double faults, won 79% of his points on first serve, and won 47% on second serve.

Carlos Alcaraz

For Alcaraz, the Indian Wells Masters will be his first hardcourt tournament since the Australian Open. The Spaniard spent the middle of February on dirt tournaments in South America, which Carlos failed at. Just before Indian Wells, the world number two played an exhibition match against his compatriot Nadal and beat Rafa in a hard-fought match in three sets. It should be noted that Nadal withdrew from the match against Raonic in the first round of the tournament in California.

Expert Betting Tips

Arnaldi got some match practice in California, defeating Frenchman van Assche in two sets. The Spaniard did not play well in Buenos Aires, and in Rio, he withdrew from the first set of the match against Monteiro. The Spaniard's current form is questionable, so we advise not to rush into betting on the Pyrenean for now. Especially since Arnaldi has been progressing lately, rising to 40th place in the ATP rankings and generally looking good on hard courts.
