Carlos Alcaraz vs Daniil Medvedev prediction

Carlos Alcaraz remains perfect in 2026 after defeating Cameron Norrie to reach his fifth Indian Wells semi-final in a row.

The world number one was rock solid as he beat the Brit 6-3 6-4 to set up a ninth career meeting with Daniil Medvedev.

The Russian maintained his own winning streak as he ended Jack Draper’s defence of the title with a 6-1 7-5 victory.

Alcaraz has won his last four encounters with Daniil and also beat the 11th seed in both the 2023 and 2024 finals at this tournament, without dropping a set.

Medvedev may well be playing some of his best tennis in a while, but Alcaraz is on another level at present and his record in these conditions means Daniil’s style is unlikely to make its mark.
