Karen Khachanov vs Tomas Martín Etcheverry Prediction: Karen to Improve After the Failure

Prediction for the ATP Miami match, which will take place on March 25th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

For Karen, the tournament in Florida is his second in the USA. The first was the competition in Indian Wells, where he played two matches. In the second round, Karen confidently defeated Otte in two sets. In the third round, he fell in three sets to Davidovich Fokina 3-6, 6-1, 4-6. It's been 11 days since then. Let's see if Karen has had time to improve his tonus.

Before the Masters in the US, Etcheverry played several clay tournaments in South America and even reached the final in Santiago but lost to Harri in three sets. In Indian Wells, he failed his first match with Andy Murray. In Miami, he achieved victory by knocking out Kotov. The game against Pavel lasted an hour and 21 minutes. Etcheverry won it in two sets, 6-2, 6-2. He made six aces and two double faults and won 86% of points on the first serve and 50% on the second. Reception stats: 37%/67%, winners/unforced errors 17/6.

At Indian Wells, we doubted that Khachanov would fit into the tournament, but we were wrong. It might be like that now. Etcheverry is noticeably inferior to Khachanov and not a hard courter like Karen. The Argentine can be dangerous on clay, but he's hardly a threat to a top-20 ATP player on a blue court.
