ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells 1/32-Finals
Goffin – de Minaur: 09.03.2025 02:00 CEST
H2H: 0-6
David Goffin has won three of his last five matches. This week in Indian Wells, he won the opening-round match against Sonego in straight sets. It is his eighth appearance in Indian Wells. He has never made it past the semifinals here.
Alex de Minaur has lost three of his last five matches. His last match was in Dubai, where he lost against Marin Cilic in the opening round. It is his eighth appearance in Indian Wells. He has never made it past the fourth round.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, de Minaur is the favorite in this matchup, and we agree. In the previous four head-to-head meetings, de Minaur won in straight sets each time against Goffin. De Minaur is a better player than Goffin, and we believe he will prolong his winning streak.
That said, de Minaur winning in straight sets is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Alex de Minaur winning 2-0 @1.62 @bet365
Djokovic – Van de Zandschulp: 08.03.2025 23:30 CEST
H2H: 1-0
Novak Djokovic has won three of his last five matches. His last match was in Doha, where Berrettini upset him in the opening round. The Serb has won the title in Indian Wells five times already. Last season, Nardi upset Djokovic in the third round.
Botic Van de Zandschulp has won three of his last five matches. This week in Indian Wells, Kyrgios retired mid-match against Van de Zandschulp in the opening round. It is his fourth appearance in Indian Wells. He has never made it past the third round here.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, Djokovic is the big favorite in this matchup, and we partially agree. However, Van de Zandschulp is a solid server, and we expect him to hold his service games comfortably.
That being said, Van de Zandschulp covering the games handicap is a value bet.
Value bet/ the best odds: Botic Van de Zandschulp +5.5 games handicap @1.73 @bet365
Monfils – Korda: 09.03.2025 05:00 CEST
H2H: first meeting
Gael Monfils has won three of his last five matches. This week in Indian Wells, Monfils won the opening round match against Struff in straight sets. Last season, Ruud stopped him in the fourth round.
Sebastian Korda has lost three of his last five matches. His last match was in Marseille, where Virtanen upset him in the opening round. It is his fifth appearance in Indian Wells. Last season, Korda lost in the third round against Medvedev.
Best Bet to Make
According to the bookies, this will be an almost 50-50 matchup, but we disagree. Korda is in terrible form and also had some minor injury problems. On the other hand, the 38-year-old Frenchman played his best tennis in the opening round match against Struff. Monfils is confident, and we expect him to be a better player tonight.
That being said, Monfils winning is a value bet.
