The real decoration of the fourth round (1/8 final) of the competition at the Masters tournament in Indian Wells (USA) will be the duel between Russian Daniil Medvedev and German Alexander Zverev, which will take place on Tuesday, March 14. Long-time rivals will meet each other, in personal confrontations that are currently tied. According to experts, our tennis player is the favorite in the match, a bet on the victory of the Russian is accepted with a coefficient of 1.26 points, while the success of the representative of Germany is estimated at 3.90 points.
Daniil Medvedev entered this game with an excellent 16-game winning streak. It all started exactly a month ago – on February 14, when the Russian defeated Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich-Fokina at the tournament in Rotterdam (4:6, 6:2, 6:2). Since then, Medvedev has won three titles (Rotterdam, Doha, Dubai) and, en route to tournament victories, Daniil has dominated a number of top tennis players, including the world’s No. 1 racket, Serbian Novak Djokovic. At the Indian Wells Masters, the Russian is also seen as one of the main contenders for victory. To the above, we add that in LIVE mode our tennis player takes the 5th line of the ATP ranking.
Alexander Zverev is gradually returning to the elite of world tennis. Almost a year ago, the representative of Germany was seriously injured at the “Roland Garros” and is now on the verge of reaching his best condition, which the tennis player had before the injury. This, in particular, is demonstrated by Zverev’s latest performances. For example, at the prestigious tournament in Dubai, which took place in early March, Alexander was able to reach the semifinals, where he lost to our Andrey Rublev in an equal fight. Zverev is progressing from tournament to tournament, and today there is no doubt that he will give Daniil Medvedev a fight. At the moment, the German is on the 14th line of the ATP ranking.
At the same time, Zverev is one of Medvedev’s toughest opponents. In personal encounters, tennis players are now evenly matched – 6 wins each. This is if we take the official fights, because there was another exhibition match between athletes in December last year, in which the Russian won. Until October 2019, only Zverev had the upper hand. However, the trend in recent years has been for Daniel to win much more often. Since the final in Shanghai in 2019, Medvedev has won five in a row. This streak was interrupted in the final of the 2021 Final Championship, when Alexander took revenge on the Russian for the loss in the group stage. We also note that Medvedev and Zverev played all their personal matches exclusively on hard courts. And if we talk about the confrontation between tennis players on the American continent, there were two such matches – both took place before 2019, respectively, the German won them.
