After a long two weeks in Indian Wells, California, we are going to see the semi-finals of the Masters 1000 tournament in the USA. In the second match, we will see the only surviving domestic player – Tommy Paul and the Russian, who is trying to come back after the terrible last season – Daniil Medvedev.
Tommy Paul vs Daniil Medvedev Preview
Tommy Paul is a very dangerous player, especially when he is playing outdoors hard, and he is playing at home. His service throughout the tournament is spectacular, which is winning him a lot of cheap points. Also, his baseline groundstrokes are fantastic, which was the main weapon he used against Casper Ruud, where he won with ease. Of course, the American had the chance to play against Luca Nardi, not Novak Djokovic, in the 1/8 finals, but still, he totally deserved his spot in the semis.
Against Tommy Paul, we will see one of the most stable players from the baseline – Daniil Medvedev. The Russian had a tough year last season, but it seems he is trying to come back and regain positions at the top of the tennis. He is currently placed in the third position, and with a few good tournaments, starting from here in Indian Wells, he can try to attack once again the first spot. This is possible thanks to Novak Djokovic’s recent weak games. I must also write that just like Tommy Paul, Medvedev is using his service a lot, and he is winning lots of points thanks to it.

Betting Tip – Tommy Paul vs Daniil Medvedev
Based on what I have seen so far in the tournament, I think that the Russians will have no problems in winning against Tommy Paul. The American did a great tournament, but I do not believe that he will have the power to resist the strong Russian, especially on outdoor hard surfaces. Medvedev already won against serious opponents and I think he will take this game with a routine. If the moneyline odds are not good enough, I suggest you take the handicap option.
