ATP Masters 1000 Miami 1/32-Finals Previews
Atmane – Rinderknech: 21.03.2026 17:30 CEST
Head-to-Head: first meeting
Terence Atmane has recorded three losses in his last five matches. This tournament marks his debut in the main draw of the Miami event, having previously failed to qualify in the past two editions. In the opening round of this year’s main draw, Atmane secured a confident victory over Altmaier in straight sets.
Arthur Rinderknech has won three of his last five matches. His most recent competitive match took place at Indian Wells, where he was eliminated by Carlos Alcaraz in a hard-fought three-set encounter during the third round.
Our Betting Outlook
According to betting odds, Rinderknech is considered the slight favorite in this matchup, a view we align with. He has demonstrated consistent performance since the beginning of the season and nearly caused an upset against Alcaraz at Indian Wells. We anticipate that his greater experience will be a decisive factor in this match.
Therefore, backing Arthur Rinderknech to win is considered a favorable bet.
Auger-Aliassime – Fucsovics: 21.03.2026 17:30 CEST
Head-to-Head: 3-2
Felix Auger-Aliassime has secured three victories in his last five matches. His most recent match was a straight-sets loss to Arthur Fils in the 1/8-finals at Indian Wells.
Marton Fucsovics also boasts three wins from his last five matches. This week in Miami, the Hungarian successfully defeated O’Connell in straight sets during the opening round. In last season’s Miami tournament, Fucsovics exited in the second round after a straight-sets defeat to Daniil Medvedev. He has never advanced beyond the third round at this event.
Our Betting Outlook
While bookmakers position Fucsovics as the underdog in this encounter, we hold a different perspective. He has a history of defeating Auger-Aliassime twice and delivered a solid, convincing performance in his Miami opener. We predict that Fucsovics will be able to keep this match tight and competitive.
Consequently, Marton Fucsovics covering the games handicap offers good betting value.
Cerundolo – Tirante: 21.03.2026 20:30 CEST
Head-to-Head: 2-2
Francisco Cerundolo has won three of his last five matches. His last match resulted in a straight-sets loss to Jack Draper in the third round at Indian Wells.
Thiago Agustin Tirante has also recorded three wins in his last five matches. Earlier this week in Miami, Tirante was narrowly defeated by Landaluce in three challenging sets during the final qualifying round. However, due to several player withdrawals, the Argentine gained entry into the main draw as a lucky loser. In his first main draw match, he overcame Royer in three close sets, playing for nearly four hours.
Our Betting Outlook
Bookmakers favor Cerundolo in this matchup, a stance we agree with. He arrives at this match well-rested, contrasting with his opponent’s long recent match, and is generally considered a stronger hard-court player. We anticipate that Cerundolo will dominate the proceedings and secure a comfortable victory.
Hence, Francisco Cerundolo winning in straight sets is a recommended bet.
