Felix Auger-Aliassime v Botic van de Zandschulp Head to Head
They played once before and it came last year in Stockholm. Auger-Aliassime won 6-4 6-3.

Super Auger-Aliassime in Fine Form
Only a handful of players have played better tennis in 2022 than Felix Auger-Aliassime. It doesn’t come as a surprise as the Canadian has been a super talent for a long time now and he flashed some of his full potentials last year at Grand Slams. Now that started to happen in smaller events as well.
He has a 15-4 record on the year and he’s been superb in areas where he lacked in the past. He doesn’t commit too many mistakes as he did in the past, he’s much better mentally and he was able to overcome his hurdle in finals winning his maiden trophy in Rotterdam.
He did not play a match since Marseille and he should be good to go. It was plenty of time to recharge and reset so I expect a very motivated Auger-Aliassime in Indian Wells where he should in theory thrive.

van de Zandschulp Solid As Ever
Botic van de Zandschulp broke out last year with some strong performances that saw him climb and stabilize himself inside the top 100. Since then it’s been a solid run of form for the Dutch player who is generally playing a very solid baseline level.
He wins against worse players and generally finds himself outplayed by better players. It’s a pretty good formula for being ranked inside the top 100 consistently which he hopes to achieve. He has a 7-5 record on the year and one of those wins came against Tennys Sandgren in round one.
The Dutch player will have trouble here against a mobile player like Auger who can move him around the court and he will need to rely on his serve to keep the Canadian from attacking too much.
Auger-Aliassime v van de Zandschulp Prediction and Tip
On paper this is a very one-sided matchup as Auger-Aliassime has all the advantages on his side. He is a better player, he has more confidence in his game and he has been playing much better this year than his opponent. He is also the better mover and generally is more mobile on the court which should help.
Botic can serve well and he will need some of that but it’s more about precision than power here. If he is able to do that he can keep himself in the game but not for long. The conditions will also favour Auger more especially if they play at nighttime when the humidity makes play even slower.
During the day the Dutch player will have more chances but anything but an easy win by Auger would be a surprise.
Tip: Auger-Aliassime to win in straight sets: 5/6 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
