Carlos Alcaraz vs Yoshihito Nishioka prediction

Alcaraz will enter the match as the overwhelming favorite. The World No. 1 reached the semifinals of the Swiss Indoors and will be eager to follow that up with a deep run at the Paris Masters. Alcaraz will look to play aggressively from the start and put pressure on his opponent. The Spaniard possesses plenty of power and is capable of mixing things up with his astute drop shots. He is lightning quick across the court. Nishioka is also nimble on his feet and has improved his serve of late. The Japanese No. 1 is a counterpuncher and will look to keep rallies going for as long as possible. He will, however, find it difficult to hit clear winners against the Spaniard. Alcaraz is still getting accustomed to playing indoors, but should have more than enough to get past Nishioka. Pick: Alcaraz to win in straight sets.
