Karen Khachanov vs Oscar Otte Prediction: Karen Won't Take Revenge

Prediction for the ATP Indian Wells match, which will take place on March 10th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

After the successful Australian Open, where Khachanov reached the semifinals, he played only one match at a tournament in Dubai. He lost to Botic van de Zandschulp of the Netherlands in two games. Obviously, Karen is on the decline after his triumphant AO. Otte can hardly be called a convenient opponent for him. So he'll have a tough matchup in the second round.

Before Indians Well, the German played in Dallas, Delray Beach, and Acapulco and had little success. But in the first round of the Masters, the German was impressive, beating Djere in two sets. The match lasted one hour and 35 minutes. Otte won it in an hour and 35 minutes, scoring 6-3, 7-5. Oscar made seven aces and two double faults, winning 100% of points on the first serve and 52% on the second. Reception statistics were 43%/34%, 15/19 winnings/ankles.

Khachanov will have problems in the second round of the Masters at Indian Wells. First, the German has a perfect record against Karen on fast courts. Second, Otte has played one match in this tournament, unlike Khachanov. Thirdly, Oscar has been in the New World for a long time, and despite poor results, he got used to the time zone, climate, etc. Whereas Khachanov did not play in the U.S. in 2023, he flew to the States after a failed tournament in Dubai, the first contest since January 2023. We believe that Otte has a good chance to fight Karen and win the meeting.
