Winning 80 percent of his first serves this season, Sebastian Korda might have a decent shot at covering the spread at +4.5 games against Carlos Alcaraz in the third round of the 2026 Miami Open.
Current Form:
Carlos Alcaraz will try to move closer to another hard-court title as he takes on No.32 seed Sebastian Korda in the third round of the 2026 Miami Open.
Alcaraz bounced back from his semifinal exit at Indian Wells with a statement win over Brazilian rising star Joao Fonseca, 6-4, 6-4. 17-1 on the ATP Tour in 2026, the Spaniard has won the last three duels with Korda and boasts a 4-1 head-to-head series lead over the American.
Meanwhile, Korda cleared his first test in Miami after trouncing Camilo Ugo Carabelli 6-0, 6-3. Korda has never played Alcaraz as the world’s No. 1-ranked player, so it would be interesting to see how he performs against the familiar foe. In five head-to-head matches with Alcaraz, Korda has only won two sets, pulling it off in his win over the Spaniard at the 2022 Monte Carlo Masters.

Our Carlos Alcaraz vs Sebastian Korda Prediction
Barring a major collapse, Carlos Alcaraz will surely win this match. The big test now is whether he can carve out a convincing win over Korda, whom he has swept in the last three meetings.
With the way Korda is serving this year, I’d say Carlito will have a hard time winning by at least five games in this match. Korda, who is winning 80 percent of his first serves and saving 60 percent of his break points, will hold the majority of his service games against Alcaraz, though it won’t be sufficient to beat the world’s No.1. Despite the lopsided 1-4 record against Alcaraz, Korda was able to put up a decent fight in every loss he suffered in their series.
Our betting prediction for Sebastian Korda vs. Carlos Alcaraz: Sebastian Korda +4.5 games
