Nishioka - Alcaraz. Prediction for the Australian Open match

Current form

Alcaraz broke the resistance of Alexander Shevchenko (6-1, 7-5, 6-1) in the first round of the Australian Open. Carlos played six aces, converted eight break points and lost two games on his serve in the match against the representative of Kazakhstan. It should be noted that this was the first match played in the new season for the Spaniard.

Professional qualities

Alcaraz is increasingly reminiscent of Rafael Nadal in his game, especially in terms of his speed around the court and his ability to pull out incredible balls on defense. He also has an outstanding physical condition and good stamina, which helps him withstand intense exchanges on the baseline. In recent seasons, Carlos has significantly improved his first serve, which was previously his weak point. Now his serve is more powerful and consistent, which gives him confidence in the game and allows him to successfully compete with strong opponents.

Current indicators in the tour

Alcaraz is the world third-ranked tennis player. The Spaniard has won 25 trophies in his career. Last season, he won four titles, winning competitions in Indian Wells and Beijing, as well as Grand Slam tournaments in Paris and London.

Interesting facts for betting

Alcaraz, as we recall, is defending last year’s quarterfinal on the courts of Melbourne.
