 Carlos Alcárez vs. Andre Rubelev is the second match for these guys in the group stage of the ADB finals. And both guys are coming off tough losses in the first matches. Andre Rubelev comes to the ADB finals as the number 5 in the world after having one of his best seasons yet. His best result at the finals was actually last year making it to the semi-finals. And there's a very strong chance of replicating that at this year's event. His win-loss record this year, 56 wins, 23 losses. Have gone two titles out of his six finals with his biggest title coming in Monte Carlo, winning his first 1000 event there. His best win was against Kasparud in Bastard on the clay courts. But his worst loss came at the very start of the year losing to Kokonakis in Adelaide. So it wasn't a great start to Rubelev's season but he did get better as it went on. His form lately has been good too. Having only lost three matches in his last ten matches, losing to Djokovic in Paris and also making the Shanghai Final a couple of weeks ago. Carlos Alcárez comes into the ADB finals as the number two in the world and will actually make his debut at the finals. Even though last year he did qualify of course having to pull out though with injuries. So first time we'll see him here. His record this year, 63 wins, 10 losses. And his titles and finals, six titles from the eight finals. The only two losses he's had in finals was to Djokovic in Cincinnati and actually to Norrie at the start of the year in Rio de Janeiro. His best win, Djokovic at Wimbledon of course, one of the biggest achievements of his career. And his worst loss came in Rome against the qualifier from Hungary Marijan. And it was just after Madrid where Alcárez had to actually won the title. So it was a big shock. His form however hasn't been good coming into this finals with a couple of losses after a long injury delay and not playing a lot of tournaments after the US Open. These guys have actually never played before. So it's going to be the first time we get to see them up against each other and they've got very aggressive style. So it's going to be really fun. A lot of shot making involved in this one. And you might lean towards Rueblev being on indoor court but Alcárez is still learning pretty quick. If Rueblev is going to win this one, he needs to be aggressive and he needs to limit the errors. He put so many errors against Medvedev in that first match so he's going to have to limit those errors and also serve well because that's been a big weapon of his this year. Valkorz is going to win this one. He also needs to limit the errors but also bring that variety. He kind of lacked the variety a little bit against Varev. He kind of just got into a bit of a hitting match with Varev and luckily for him, Rueblev's serve is not as big as Varev's. It is still aggressive but it's not as big as Varev's so he might be able to get some more back and get into these rallies. Such an interesting matchup. A must win match for one of these guys. If they lose they're pretty much out of the tournament. I'm going to go with Rueblev to win though. I think his aggressive style is just going to frustrate Alcárez a little bit and I also think Rueblev wanted to redeem himself after a poor performance in the first match. But let me know down in the comments below who's going to win this one.
