Miami, USA, Round of 64
Sure, here's a continuation and translation of the analysis into English, with team names in bold as per your original request:
Bublik A. - Arnaldi M.
Bublik comes off a second round at Indian Wells where he lost to De Minaur but showed promising play, and on these surfaces, he's very strong. A powerful player (especially in service) but with excellent variations, his main issue has always been his mentality, which seems to have been resolved in recent months. Beware, as he forces play whenever possible. Arnaldi looked very good against Fils, even though he played at a completely different time, and aided by a disinterested and inconsistent opponent, but if Bublik decides to take his usual pause, it’s not out of the question that Arnaldi could snatch a set. However, I see the Kazakh as the favorite.
Fucsovics M. - Medvedev D.
On paper, this match shouldn't be a contest, but my attention is drawn to a fundamental point. Medvedev lost a final two days ago under completely different conditions, and surely he will win this match, but his opponent has good power and decisiveness and might trouble the Russian at the start.
Griekspoor T. - Michelsen A.
Two players with excellent service and powerful shots, in this match service percentages will dominate. I predict a very contested match mainly due to the characteristics of the players which in the end might favor the more experienced player (Griekspoor) who will definitely try to gather some points until the grass season (his favorite). On the other hand, the American, who has grown a lot, will not want to disappoint his home crowd.
Humbert H. - Van de Zandschulp B.
Humbert, after winning the Dubai tournament, arrived very tired at Indian Wells, losing in the third round to an excellent Tommy Paul. In this tournament, he will surely want to return to his levels and perform well. Excellent service and trajectories (being left-handed) mixed with a great forehand and response capabilities lead me to believe that for his opponent, who is very error-prone and with little decisiveness (yesterday won a match by making fewer mistakes), there aren’t many chances.
Jarry N. - Draper J.
Two excellent players, especially in service, could make many aces. Draper is much more comfortable on these surfaces where he can control the game. Supporting my theory are the 22 winners made in 16 games in the previous match. Jarry, also a great player but more impactful on clay, is very good at varying and exploiting errors like all South Americans, and Draper makes many. It could be a quite contested match, although I see the Brit as the clear favorite.
Koepfer D. - Baez S.
Here we have two diametrically opposed players, the strength and decisiveness of Koepfer clash with Baez's variations. Koepfer, familiar with the surface and having won yesterday in a comeback against a not very decisive Giron, and Baez, a somewhat similar player, I believe the match could eventually favor Baez. However, he will need to quickly adapt to the surface coming from clay. Definitely, for one reason or another, I expect this match to be decided on the return.
Murray A. - Etcheverry T.M.
Murray comes from an excellent victory against Berrettini where he displayed all his class, but in the end, as he says, there's still life in the old dog, and it's true because at his age he was able to absorb the Italian's power and not suffer from the weather conditions. Etcheverry returns from a month-long break, and these are definitely not the ideal conditions, nor the ideal opponent, to find continuity. He is fundamentally a very good player on clay and much less so on hard courts. I give Murray the benefit of the doubt for recovery after the marathon, but for me, the Scot will take it home.
Norrie C. - Cobolli F.
Norrie has found his consistency and will aim to do well, starting as the favorite and trying to settle the matter with Cobolli quickly, much will also depend on the latter's service percentages (not very good). Norrie, a very versatile and grinding player, benefits him in many situations. Cobolli, on his part, will have to serve well and unleash his forehand immediately, otherwise, there's no chance for the Italian.
O’Connell C. - Tiafoe F.
O’Connell is playing very well, having easily dealt with Kopriva in the first round, very good on this surface and can play his cards in this match especially due to Tiafoe's current lack of conviction and certainty, despite this, I believe the match will largely depend on Tiafoe, specifically on his errors. In the end, I think he could take it home.
Ruud C. - Van Assche L.
Ruud, a player who has finally returned to his standards, had a great quarter-final at Indian Wells and will want to repeat the result. He has excellent variations and a menacing forehand, especially for a player like Van Assche, who plays far back and away from the court. However, be wary of the numerous errors Ruud still carries with him, which the young Frenchman could capitalize on. Moreover, having nothing to lose, he might showcase his best shots, especially the crosscourt backhand, which could make the difference.
Shang J. - Davidovich Fokina A.
Shang won a highly contested match yesterday against the veteran Kecmanovic. The Chinese player, born in 2005, with a very effective serve and forehand, in addition to being quick and physically fit, could take advantage of the Spanish player's rough patch. Davidovich Fokina struggles for consistency, especially with his forehand, and has been choosing to play further back, making him more vulnerable to attacks. I believe it could be a great match, where perhaps the Spaniard will come out on top in the end.
Shapovalov D. - Tsitsipas S.
Shapovalov easily won yesterday, more so than the score suggests. The key to this match will be the serve, which will be used to open up the court. Both players have strong forehand crosscourts, but on the backhand side, Shapovalov shows more consistency than Tsitsipas. Nonetheless, I anticipate a fiercely contested match.
