Alcaraz Garfia is back in action after a right leg muscle injury. This will be his first match of the season and it would seem to be a difficult one for him, but we just expect Carlos to start in Buenos Aires with quite a solid win. Djere is unlikely to be a serious problem for the Spaniard on the clay.
Alcaraz Garfia has not played an official match in over two months. The Spaniard has been recovering from a right leg injury for over two months. We believe that the Spaniard has missed the game and expect to see him making a solid start on the courts in Buenos Aires.
This will be Carlos’ first match of the new season.
Alcaraz missed the ATP World Tour Finals at the end of last year because of an abdominal injury sustained at the Paris Masters.
In early January, Carlos picked up a new injury. This time, he injured his hamstring, for which he could not play at the Australian Open.
In general, not the easiest few months are behind him. However, now Alcaraz seems to have picked up his form. True, it is still not clear whether he is ready to play his best tennis right away.
Alcaraz has won seven of his last nine matches on clay.
On the eve of the start of the competition in Buenos Aires, Carlos admitted that the injury does not bother him anymore and that he came to the tournament, as always, with thoughts of a trophy. After missing the Australian Open, Alcaraz Garfia lost his world number-one ranking and is now in second place.
Laslo, meanwhile, started the Argentina Open with a victory over Fabio Fognini (6-4, 6-4).
The Serb was helped by an injury to his opponent. The Italian bounced back with a 2-5 lead but sprained his ankle on the last point. After that, he could no longer play at full strength.
In early February, Djere hardly defeated Viktor Durasovic of Norway in the Davis Cup.
At the Australian Open, Djere defeated Zizou Bergs (6-4, 1-6, 6-4, 6-1) in the first round before losing to Grigor Dimitrov (3-6, 2-6, 0-6) of Bulgaria.
In the 2021 season, he reached the quarter-finals in Buenos Aires.
Djere has lost ten of his last 11 matches when his opponent was a top-10 tennis player.
Laslo has made three previous appearances in Buenos Aires. His best result so far in the Argentine Open is reaching the quarter-finals in 2021.
