Command Analysis

Damir Dzumhur

Current form
Jumhur scored a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Brandon Holt in the first round of qualifying at Indian Wells. In the confrontation with the American, Damir made two aces, made four break points and lost one game on his serve. It was the Bosnian's second win on the open hard court this season, with three losses.
Professional qualities
Jumhur is an experienced grounder whose backline play is always reliable. His pitch also deserves attention, although it doesn't always turn out to be stable. Damir's forehand has always been more reliable than his backhand, but it's worth noting that both of his shots are stable. There have never been any questions about the Bosnian's physical data - he calmly endures protracted fights.
Current indicators in the tour
Last season brought Jumhur six trophies. He won the last one at the dirt challenger, which took place in Maya. In total, Damir has won 30 titles in his career, three of which are in the ATP category. He is currently ranked 84th in the world rankings.
Interesting facts for betting
The last two matches with Jumhur ended in two sets.

Radu Albot

Current form
Albot was stronger than Taro Daniel in the first round of the Indian Wells tournament qualification (3-6, 6-2, 6-4). Radu scored nine aces, made four break points and lost three games on his serve in a duel against a Japanese tennis player. For Albot, it was the first win of the season with seven losses.
Professional qualities
Albot has completely mastered the game on clay surfaces, which allows him to demonstrate his best tennis on slow surfaces. Although he can do something on the hard drive. The end of last season was not a good one for Radu, and the beginning of the current one did not bring him anything. Perhaps the situation will change in Indian Wells, where the courts are slow and the Moldovan tennis player is able to show his best game on them.
Current indicators in the tour
Albot won his last trophy on the outdoor hard court in Istanbul in 2022. It was the 24th title of his career for him. Radu is currently in 190th place in the world ranking, although he was once 39th in the world.
