In the quarterfinals of the tennis tournament in Cincinnati, Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz will face Australian Max Purcell. At first glance, Alcaraz is the clear favorite, but it is worth noting the form of the players. The Spaniard has lost sets in his previous matches, indicating some difficulties he is facing in the tournament. Meanwhile, Australian Max Purcell is playing exceptionally well and has already defeated several strong tennis players in this tournament, including Stan Wawrinka. Moreover, Purcell is in peak form and demonstrating a high level of play. It is expected that he will be able to create problems for Alcaraz and possibly win a set. However, the ultimate victory will likely go to the Spaniard, but the match is likely to be a more evenly contested battle than bookmakers expect.
Alcaraz and Purcell have competed in four out of their last five matches with set exchanges. Even in the only two-set game with Shelton, 22 games were played. This indicates that matches between them are usually very balanced and with tough competition. However, although Max could be considered the weakest of his opponents, his form is currently improving. Felix Auger-Aliassime, Andy Murray, Casper Ruud, and Stan Wawrinka all had difficulties playing against Max. He played a very close three-set match with one of them. Considering this, it can be expected that Max will pose problems for Alcaraz. It is recommended to bet on a higher number of games in the match. Our prediction: Total over 18.5 games.
