As expected, Alcaraz had problems in his match against Paul. The match against Tommy was a long 3-set match that lasted more than three hours and was won by Carlos with a score of 7-6, 6-7, 6-3. He made six aces and four double faults and got 72% of the points on the first serve and 47% on the second. Reception statistic: 38%/57%, winners/unforced errors statistic 42/19. Before his victory over Paul, Alcaraz also defeated Thompson in three sets at the Cincinnati Masters.

For Purcell, the upcoming match will be his sixth at the Cincinnati Masters. The Australian started the tournament in the qualifying rounds, where he knocked out Van Assche and Popyrin, while in the main draw, Max beat Harris, Ruud, and Wawrinka. In three main matches, Purcell gave only one set to Ruud. The game against Wawrinka lasted only one hour and 13 minutes, and Purcell won 6-4, 6-2. Max made seven aces and two double faults, winning 71% of the points on the first and 70% on the second serve. Receiving statistics: 38%/57%, winners/unforced errors 27/10.

It is difficult to compare the world's number one and the 70th-ranked player. However, Carlos had already lost two sets in Cincinnati and struggled against Paul. Purcell looked good at the Toronto Masters, and here in Cincinnati, the Australian is having a great time. He has already knocked out a top-ten player in the ATP rankings and has convincingly beaten two other opponents. Alcaraz will have problems today, just like he did against Paul, and the Spaniard should not expect an easy ride. The Australian will give his opponent a fight.
