Comparing to the 2020 season, Diego Schwartzman has had a relatively poor season so far. After reaching the quarterfinal at Roland Garros, he was knocked out of the third round at Wimbledon.

After bowing out of the first round at Wimbledon, he won three consecutive titles- the Swedish Open, the Swiss Open and the Austrian Open. He then reached the quarterfinals at both Toronto and Cincinnati Masters.
After a poor run at US Open, he won the title at San Diego beating Cameron Norrie in the final. This week at Indian Wells, he blasted past Roberto Carballes Baena in the second round before beating Lloyd Harris in three sets 6-7(4),6-4,6-4.

Diego Schwartzman vs Casper Ruud: Prediction
Both the players have proved their mettle time and again but given Ruud’s current form, he will enter the match as the favorite. Although both of them prefer playing on clay, they have a strong hardcourt game too and whoever takes the charge from the baseline will come out as the victor. Expect the match to go down the distance with Ruud moving into the last 8.
Prediction: Ruud to win in three sets.
