Alcaraz is a Nardi. Forecast for the ATP Doha match
Alcaraz and Nardi will meet in the second round of the Doha tournament on February 19.

By what score will the Spaniard be able to beat Luke? - the bets for this match are in our forecast.

Professional qualities
The distinctive features of Alcaraz are outstanding physical characteristics, excellent technique and a real fighting spirit. It's hard to find weaknesses in his game.

Luca Nardi
