Matteo Berrettini vs Carlos Alcaraz: Preview
Matteo Berrettini is currently at his career high. The Italian didn’t start off too great; he won only one out of his three group stage matches in the ATP Cup. However, Berrettini immediately took his game to the next level in the Australian Open. He defeated multiple seeded players; Carlos Alcaraz (6-2, 7-6, 4-6, 2-6, 7-6) in the third round, Pablo Carreño Busta (7-5, 7-6, 6-4) in the fourth round, Gaël Monfils (6-4, 6-4, 3-6, 3-6, 6-2) in the quarter-finals, and Rafael Nadal (3-6, 2-6, 6-3, 3-6) in the semi-finals to whom Berrettini lost. As the first seed, the Italian faced Thiago Monteiro in the round of 16 of the ATP Rio Open 2022. After beating him in straight sets (6-4, 6-7, 6-3), Berrettini will play against Carlos Alcaraz in the Quarter-finals.
The 18-year-old Spaniard began 2022 with a bang, winning the Next Gen ATP Finals, grabbing the title from Sebastian Korda (4-3, 4-2, 4-2) in the finals. In the Australian Open, Alcaraz made it to the third round, where he lost to Matteo Berrettini after beating Dušan Lajović (6-2, 6-1, 7-5) in the previous game. Alcaraz overcame the first round of the ATP Rio Open 2022 against Jaume Munar (2-6, 6-2, 6-1). He breezed through the next round in straight sets against Federico Delbonis (6-4, 7-6).
Matteo Berrettini vs Carlos Alcaraz: Head-to-Head
Matteo Berrettini and Carlos Alcaraz have previously played two times against each other, where both the Italian and the Spaniard have won once, making their head-to-head 1-1. Today, the two will encounter each other for the third time.
Matteo Berrettini vs Carlos Alcaraz: Prediction
Though Berrettini is ranked higher and has more ATP titles, Alcaraz already won a title this year and is playing steadily. Both players will be playing their third tournament this year. Alcaraz has the momentum to win this match. However, Berrettini has already played against many of the top-ranked players in these two months.
Prediction: Matteo Berrettini is expected to win in three sets.
