Alex De Minaur as Denis Shapovalov. Prediction for the ATP Madrid match
De Minaur and Shapovalov will meet in the third round of the Masters in Madrid on April 28. De Minaur has been showing excellent play and consistent results on the court this season. The Australian reached the semi-finals of the Monte Carlo Masters and was in the quarterfinals in Barcelona last week. Given Alex's high-quality clay-court tennis, it will be extremely difficult for the unstable Shapovalov to impose a fight on him. What bets should I pay attention to in the upcoming match? - find out in our betting tip

De Minaur is famous for his excellent footwork and outstanding speed.

Professional qualities
Shapovalov prefers aggressive tennis, betting on powerful shots. The Canadian actively uses both the forehand and his spectacular one-handed backhand, trying to quickly complete the draws with spectacular winners.
