Khachanov - Shelton. Prediction for the ATP Indian Wells match
Khachanov and Shelton will meet in the third round of the Indian Wells tournament on March 11. Khachanov does not play well against tennis players from the top 20 of the world ranking. Will Karen be able to beat Shelton in the upcoming match? - the bets for this match are in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Karen Khachanov
Russian FederationCurrent form
Khachanov scored a strong-willed victory over Yakub Menshik (3-6, 6-0, 6-3) in the second round of the Indian Wells Masters. In a duel with the Czech, Karen made two aces, made five break points and lost two games on his serve. The Russian has four wins and four losses on the open hard court this season.
Professional qualities
Khachanov is a tennis player who builds his game around a powerful serve and aggressive forehand attacks. However, despite his excellent physique, his playing style is limited in terms of variety. A lack of technical flexibility and a tendency to rush into action can be vulnerable points in a Russian's game, especially against more experienced and strategically prepared opponents.
Current indicators in the tour
Khachanov added to his trophy collection last season by winning tournaments in Doha and Almaty. In total, the Russian currently has seven ATP titles, which he has won during his career. Karen is currently in 23rd place in the world ranking.
Interesting facts for betting
Only 2 of the last 6 matches ended in victories for Khachanov.
Ben Shelton
USACurrent form
Shelton started the Indian Wells Masters with a 6-3, 6-2 victory over Mariano Navone. During the match, Ben made five aces, made three break points and did not lose a single game on his serve. For the American, it was his seventh victory on the open hard court this season, with three losses.
Professional qualities
One of the main advantages of Shelton is his powerful serve, but besides that, he also demonstrates excellent speed, which allows him to successfully act in defense, and his backhand is distinguished by its sharpness. Ben is a mood-dependent player, and a good start in the tournament can take him far. He has no obvious weaknesses, except for frequent defeats from top players.
Current indicators in the tour
Shelton is currently ranked 12th in the world. Ben finished last season with one trophy - he won the title in Houston on clay. It was the second ATP trophy of his career for him.
