In-form 28th seed Brandon Nakashima attempts to reach round three at Indian Wells for the second year in a row. Round two of the outdoor hard court 2026 BNP Paribas Open sees the American face unseeded Camilo Ugo Carabelli. Read our match prediction below.
Nakashima has already gone deep in two tournaments this year, both played on this surface. The year began with a run to the final in Brisbane, losing to Daniil Medvedev. After a dip in form, he was a semi-finalist in Acapulco in his last tournament.
The 24-year-old is 30th in the live rankings and won his one previous match against Carabelli but played on clay.
The winner here will face either fourth seed Alexander Zverev or unseeded Matteo Berrettini in round three.
Camilo Ugo Carabelli is making his debut in this Sunshine Swing tournament. He is much more at home on clay though with a Challenger Tour title won this year and a quarter-final in Buenos Aires.
The 26-year-old had a poor time down under at the start of the year. All three of his outdoor hard court matches were lost. He'd lost three matches in a row (all on clay) before beating Martin Damm in straight sets in round one here and is 66th in the live rankings.
We tip Brandon Nakashima to win in straight sets.
