Prediction
King of clay Rafael Nadal is back following a break from an injury which he faced during the BNP Paribas Open. The Spaniard had gone through a very tremendous season before he took off at Indian Wells. Only Taylor Fritz could defeat the 21-times Grand Slam champion this tennis season so far. The 35-year-old has already won three titles this year including a record 21st Grand Slam at the Australian Open defeating World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev in an intense game.
On the other hand, Kecmanovic recently reached the semifinals of the Bavarian International and the quarterfinals of the Serbia Open before losing to Novak Djokovic on home soil. At Miami Open, he was beaten by Carlos Alcaraz in the last eight by Taylor Fritz at Indian Wells Masters. He also reached the quarters of the Chile Open and Rio Open. Quite a good season so far for the Serb.
Meanwhile, Kecmanovic is going to face King of clay next and the Spaniard is in a very strong form this year. The player also has experience with Kecmanovic on clay where he beat him in Mexico two years back. Nadal is expected to continue with his magical form at the home ground tomorrow in a friendly environment in Madrid Open.
