Medvedev is in peak form. He holds the edge against Michelsen 3-0. Despite the American playing good tennis on home soil, his heavy-hitting, big-bounce game is not effective against one of the best defensive players of this era.

Belinda Bencic
Win Match

@+160
Lose
-120
Bencic can get Pegula into a defensive position where she is not comfortable at all. The American has been struggling with her game at times in recent matches, and Belinda has dismantled top-quality players in the last rounds. She started 2026 in peak form, and I feel the odds are more based on ranking than on reality.

Linda Noskova

Noskova's power, I feel, is just going to be too much for Eala. She is a baseline player and Eala is really defensive. But Linda maintained 15 of 16 service games against Cîrstea, showing a great serve.

@-136
Win

Tien is playing the tennis of his life, with 15 aces in his last match. The training with Californian tennis legend Michael Chang is noticeable. Foki is super talented, but he struggles against defensive players who make him go for an extra ball and he is very emotional. Expect the match to be tight, but I have to go with Tien.

Alexander Zverev

@-285

I need to go with the German here, but I'm not super confident. Zverev struggles with his second serve, and Tiafoe gets hyped whenever he plays on his home soil. I am basing my prediction purely on the 8-1 and the psychological factor.

Anisimova's win against Raducanu looks very impressive on paper, but the reality is that Raducanu played a really, really bad match ??" hitting balls without power or confidence and allowing the American to grow big on the court. Mboko likes hard American courts, and I see really good value in the Canadian.
02:30 Daniil Medvedev vs Sebastian Baez
Daniil Medvedev
Win Match
500 WIN
@-666
Win
75
Baez is having one of the best moments in his career, but the former number one has great momentum, surface advantage, and is basically one of the best hard-court players of this generation. Baez relies on topspin shots to buy time to reposition, but the 28 cm height difference between them, plus the Russian's serve, looks too much for the great Argentinian player.

Sakkari just won in Doha. Swiatek will look to avenge the defeat, but the value on the Greek is too juicy. Also, the head-to-head is even at 4-4. Swiatek is coming from suffering against the qualifier Kayla Day, and Sakkari from a solid win against Lili Tagger, showing her adaptation to the court.
20:00 Mirra Andreeva vs Katerina Siniakova
Mirra Andreeva
Win Match
500 WIN
@-499
Lose
-500
When the defender champions hits the ball like that and does not cry for every ball she misses, she is really, really scary. First of all, Siniakova comes from one of the longest matches of the season: 3 h 28 min. On the other hand, Andreeva played barely 50 minutes; she demolished Solana Sierra. The big bounce of the ball here gives the young player a lot of time to reposition and calibrate her shots, neutralising in this way the powerful shots of Siniakova.
19:30 Alexander Bublik vs Rinky Hijikata
Rinky Hijikata
Win Match
50 WIN
@+350
Win
175
Bublik said after the match with the lucky loser Vit Kopriva that he felt Vit was 'hitting like Sinner.' In this match we all rely on the temperament of the number 10. Rinky has already won about four matches this season on this surface and comes with big upset momentum after defeating world number 20 Darderi. You only need Rinky to win one out of every four times against Bublik on this surface to cover the value of this price.
18:00 Cameron Norrie vs Alex De Minaur
Cameron Norrie
Win Match
50 WIN
@+359
Win
180
Odds are giving around 20% of possibilities for Norrie to win, which I believe is disrespectful to the former champion. He had his peak in 2021, and currently De Minaur is playing his best tennis. But Norrie loves this dirty California surface. The British won last in the United Cup in their last encounter, and he can turn a really physical 3-hour battle to his favor. At these odds, it is more than justified to sprinkle a bit of parlay on Norrie.
18:00 Karolina Muchova vs Antonia Ruzic
Karolina Muchova
Win Match

@-588
Win
85
Muchova, the newly crowned WTA Doha champion, is a player with an enormous variety of shots. Ruzic is more straightforward. Also, the Czech player has had good runs in this tournament, only being stopped by Rybakina or ?wi?tek. The former Grand Slam finalist and world No. 8 has the tactical depth that Ruzic is lacking.

@-208

-180
Some of Tommy Paul's wins during the years in Indian Wells (Rublev, Zverev, Ruud, Norrie, Humbert, Hurkacz). On the other hand, Fonseca's second Indian Wells win and his best result until this moment was against Khachanov, who had two game points and won the first set, but then let himself down when he could not convert them. Do not misunderstand me ??" I don't underappreciate Fonseca's game. He is, in fact, super resilient and most of the time wins after losing the first set. But Tommy has a better history here. I suppose more crowd support (yes, he is the local, but Brazilians and people in general are crazy about Fonseca here) and has 3 hours less court time, so given these odds I go with Paul. Bet wisely.

There is no comparison between these players in strength, shot selection, and experience at the high level. Plus the fact Coco plays at home. It's true I do not see her in her best spot mentally, but I think this match will be pretty straightforward.

Emma Raducanu
Win Match
50 WIN
@+250
Lose
-50
Anisimova will look to avenge her losses (as well on hard court) in both Australia and Miami 2025. Everything indicates that, at this stage of their careers, the power and maturity of Anisimova should give her the edge. The question is, why do I bet on Raducanu? It's just a small amount due to this being an amazing bet; you don't need to risk much. But the reason is intuition: Raducanu has some psychological barriers that she imposes on herself. Knowing she can beat this opponent even at her home (Miami), plus something that might seem trivial like a sponsor change, leads me to think she will be in a good mental state and can become a threat to Amanda.
20:00 Ben Shelton vs Learner Tien
Learner Tien
Win Match
65 WIN
@+120
Win
78
I did not see the best version of Ben in the first round. He was looking down a lot. I mean, it's true that the colossus Opelka was playing one of his best matches, smashing the ball like he had been born on that court. But Tien was born two hours from Indian Wells, already beat Shelton in Mallorca, and he enjoys slow-paced courts. He also comes in at the best moment of his career, having reached the quarterfinals at the Australian Open. I see good value here on Learner.
20:00 Camila Osorio vs Naomi Osaka
Naomi Osaka
Win Match
100 WIN
@-188
Win
53
Risky match to bet, but here we are. Trusting the 2018 winner, Osaka. If her serve and flat strokes are on point tonight, she can win due to the dry wind of IW. She lost last year against this same opponent. Will this time be different? I expect it to be. Though this slow court favors one of the best defensive players on tour, Osorio.
19:00 Victoria Mboko vs Anna Kalinskaya
Victoria Mboko
Win Match
300 WIN
@-161
Win
186
Good value on the Canadian here, who ??" let's not forget ??" is making her first appearance on this court. I feel the 2??"0 in her favor against Kalinskaya, plus expected greater support from the crowd (which has the most impact on very young players like her), should give her the edge. She has also been showing a good level of tennis lately only struggling when having poor serve.
18:00 Aryna Sabalenka vs Jaqueline Cristian
Aryna Sabalenka
Win Match
500 WIN
@-2500
Win
20
J. Cristian is a really good tennis player with nice shot selection. Her problem, IMO, is that she is one of those players who cannot maintain a high level of tennis for the full match. I guess she will have extra motivation because she is facing the number one, but I cannot see any scenario where she beats Sabalenka, who has reached the final on two occasions.
18:00 Brandon Nakashima vs Alexander Zverev
Alexander Zverev
Win Match
500 WIN
@-333
Win
150
This can be a tricky one, more than the odds suggest. But Zverev knows by now how it feels to beat Nakashima on every surface. He has a dominant head-to-head, 5??"0, and has historically held 97% of his service games against the American. Given the odds, I go with the German.

I know stats and historical records are not everything, but if I need to decide between Tauson (who, let's say the truth, has some frustrating matches where she misses easy shots) ??" but has won at least once against Rybakina, ?wi?tek, Noskova, Osaka, Tomljanovic, and Gibson (one of her best wins was against a really out-of-shape player in a downward spiral like E. Alexandrova) ??" I will go with Tauson.

Caio Borralho

@-249
Win
20
Tough fight to predict, but I have to go with Caio Borralho, who has more solid wins than De Ridder. De Ridder beat a really washed-out Whittaker who did not fight his best in that fight. Borralho lost his last fight but went five rounds with a monster like Imavov. I see him getting back on track.
02:10 Gregory Rodrigues v Brunno Ferreira
Gregory Rodrigues
Win Fight
100 WIN
@-175
Win
57
Rodrigues is in his prime, 34 years old, with impressive wins against elite-level Kopylov, Hermansson, CLD. It is true that he suffered a really shocking and brutal defeat against Ferreira, but three years have passed. He changed his diet. I see him with a really different focus, working with his wife to keep a "military" diet. Those 12 cm of height difference are going to be impactful here. It is also true that Rodrigues lost against former title challenger Cannonier, but he fought him for almost four rounds, which gives him high-level experience.

Ugo Humbert
Win Match
91 WIN
@-117

-91
None of these players have had a good result in this tournament. Humbert beat Shapovalov once in 2023; Shapovalov is tough on these courts. Humbert also won a set last year against a very strong Rune. I like Humbert more and more. He looks more like the one who was once 13th in the world. These slow courts do not favour Michelsen. Bet wisely.

Amazing value on the 2021 winner here. McDonald's most impressive win in this tournament, I think it was last year in 3 sets against Fokina, whom we all know is capable of the best and the worst at the same time. Norrie has had impressive wins apart from his crown of 2021 and loves these hard, slow courts. I need to give it to him at this nice value.
20:30 Andrey Rublev vs Gabriel Diallo
Andrey Rublev
Win Match
250 WIN
@-285
Lose
-250
Diallo can be really aggressive and dangerous, but the differences are, first of all, that Rublev is coming with a maturity never seen before. Historically, he has had really good wins in this tournament. This court is slower, which, given the superior arsenal of the Russian against Diallo, can be a decisive factor. We still need to see if all that stress of being in Dubai, stuck with that rocket alarm, is going to take a toll on him. Bet wisely.

Karen Khachanov

@+125

-200
Khachanov comes from one really strong performance against the world number 1. It is true that Fonseca will have all the support from Brazilians in the USA, and that is important for him. But the Russian is creating angles with his shots that not many players on tour can produce. Really good odds ??" underrated Khachanov.
19:00 Karolina Muchova vs Anna Bondar
Karolina Muchova

@-909

Muchova is going to be 'Mucho' for Bondar. Karolina has had good runs in her 2 appearances in this contest and also holds the edge in wins against Bondar. She is playing as nicely as she ever has. I go with the one from the Czech Republic.
19:00 Maria Sakkari vs Lilli Tagger
Maria Sakkari
Win Match
400 WIN
@-208
Win
192
Sakkari has had really good results in the last years, only losing in final rounds against the likes of ?wi?tek, Gauff or Sabalenka. Lilli Tagger is 12 years younger and on a really good winning streak, so she should not be underappreciated. She has played in tournaments like Mumbai and others of a lower range. This is her first appearance at Indian Wells. She had a really nice win against a good opponent like V. Gracheva, but I feel there are levels for this game and she still has to earn her spot. So nice odds on Sakkari, IMO.

Vacherot is struggling to repeat the success from Shanghai, where all the stars aligned for him. This is his first appearance at one of the most prestigious and best-paid ATP tournaments (outside of a Grand Slam). He beat Nuno Borges in their only encounter, and the Portuguese player has not had good results at this tournament historically.

Shapovalov will continue his run in this tournament with his fast-paced game style. It will be too much for Etcheverry, who??"don't make a mistake about it??"is playing good tennis lately but is more clay-oriented.

Jasmine Paolini
Win Match

@-263

None of these players (in general) had great success here. In fact, if you look at the history of matches, it looks like Paolini does not like to play here at Indian Wells, and Potapova beat her in 2024 (a year in which she had a nice run). But considering the current level of both players, I go with the Italian.

This year Shelton is not joking. Good movement, strength, and a more solid serve than he used to have. He is tired of being just another good player around the top 10 and wants to be in the conversation with the greatest. Nice spin and also flat shots ??" he has it all. Opelka lacks mobility to face someone like Ben. He also had some back pain in the past, likely due to being the tallest player on tour.

You've got to give it to Learner Tien. He is showing that he will be in the top 10 very soon if he keeps playing like this. He has a really surprising mindset and does not look like he loses control of himself. This is one of the most important things in tennis, apart from his intelligence and shot selection, which are really extensive.

Flavio Cobolli

@+110

220
I need to go with Cobolli. He is making impossible shots, not only one per match but many. The issue here is Kecmanovi?'s consistency, as the odds indicate he is the favorite. But Cobolli is another player who loses interest in matches from time to time. Playing here on the Tennis Paradise, he should be more than motivated and will also have crowd support. Good value on the Italian here.

Do not sleep on Kimberly Birrell at all. She is actually good value. But after the last performances of Mboko, and considering all the support she will have playing on American soil (which seems to be a great advantage for her, thinking of the WTA Canada Masters which she won), I need to go with the Canadian.
