Francisco Cerundolo

Cerundolo is excellent in Miami. The Argentine won Kovacevic, Auger-Aliassime, and Sonego. The match against Sonego for Francisco was the longest and most difficult, lasting two hours and three minutes. The Argentine won it in three sets with the score 3:6, 6:3, 6:2. During the game, Cerundolo served four times with four double faults and won 71% of points on the first serve and 44% on the second. Return statistics: 38%/57%, winners/unforced errors statistics 21/25. Last season, Cerundolo reached the semifinals in Florida, but he lost to Casper Ruud, beating Tiafoe and Sinner. So it's evident that the courts here are comfortable for Francisco.

Karen Khachanov

Karen has a fantastic chance to rise to the top 10 of the ATP rankings after the Miami tournament, but he needs to achieve the Masters finals. At the moment, Karen occupies 14th place in the ATP rankings. In case of victory over the Argentine, the Russian will be ahead of Nadal, Norrie, and Hurkacz and get the 11th position. So, Khachanov's motivation is evident. Karen won Etcheverry, Lehecka, and Tsitsipas. The match against Tsitsipas lasted an hour and 34 minutes, and Khachanov won it with a score of 7:6, 6:4. During the game, Karen made five aces with zero double faults, won 89% of the points on the first serve and 63% on the second. Return statistics: 21%/43%, winners/unforced errors statistics 25/9.

Expert Betting Tips

Karen started the 2023 season perfectly, reached the semifinals of the Australian Open. Now he is a contender for the semifinals in Miami. In Florida, Khachanov took revenge on Tsitsipas for the failure in Melbourne, beating the Greek in two games. After all, Tsitsipas was an extremely problematic opponent for Khachanov. Again, Khachanov may achieve the top 10 ATP rankings in case of success in Miami. Cerundolo must repeat the result of last season, which means getting to the semifinals to stay in the ranking. However, we guess that Cerundolo will lose today, despite the comfort of the local courts. Khachanov is very good and has an advantage over his opponent.
