Command Analysis
Mariano Navone
ArgentinaCurrent form
Navone started the Indian Wells tournament with a victory over Lerner Tien, beating the American in two sets (7-5, 6-4). Mariano scored four aces, made three break points, and lost one game on his serve. For the Argentine, it was his second win on the open hard court this season, with three losses.
Professional qualities
Navone moves perfectly around the court and confidently attacks from the forehand, trying not to drag the draws into a passive game. However, his attacking potential is limited, which prevents him from achieving stable results on the hard drive. The serve doesn't stand out for power or accuracy, and the two-handed backhand regularly crashes.
Current indicators in the tour
Navone has won six trophies in his career. Last season, he won the clay challenger in Cagliari. In the world ranking, the Argentine is currently in 63rd place.
Interesting facts for betting
Navone has won 2 of the last 3 matches in which he was the underdog.

Shelton played his last tournament in Acapulco. In those competitions, Ben beat Flavio Kobolli in the first round, but then he lost to David Goffin. The American has six wins and three losses on the open hard court this season.
Professional qualities
Shelton relies on an aggressive style in his game. His main trump card is his lightning—fast serve, which earns him easy points. He is also good at forehand and is confident at the net. In addition, his excellent coordination and speed allow him to win long draws.
