On March 16, Jannick will face Nick Kyrgios. What to expect from this meeting?
The courts in Indian Wells are perfect for the Italian tennis player’s style of play. I like how Jannick channels his emotions throughout the fights, even when he is losing. It is rare for Sinner to lose control, and in my opinion, given the beginning of his professional career, this is the right decision.
Due to plasticity, Sinner can get almost all the balls in draws on the backline. Given this, he has every chance to force Nick to be inaccurate.
Nick has played five games so far this season. The representative of Australia managed to beat Liam Brody, after which a recorded defeat from Daniil Medvedev at the Australian Open. At Indian Wells, the Australian dealt with Sebastian Baez, Federico Delbonis, and Kasper Ruud. With all due respect to them, all these tennis players cannot boast of high-quality actions on the pitch.
The victory of Jannick Sinner is estimated at 1.77, and the triumph of Nick Kyrgios can be for 2.05.
Sinner in this confrontation, in my opinion, is the favorite. That is because the Italian can hold back the powerful blows of the Australian on the backline and find moments for counterattacks. At the same time, mentally, Kyrgios is unlikely to destroy the game of Jannick. Of course, the Australian is improving from match to match, but even this is not enough to get into the quarterfinals of the tournament in Indian Wells.
