Carlos Alcaraz vs Cameron Norrie preview
After a first-round bye, top seed Carlos Alcaraz will face Cameron Norrie in the second round of the Paris Masters 2025.
Trending
The first three months of the season were quite uneven for Alcaraz. A title in Rotterdam, along with a semifinal at the Indian Wells Masters and a quarterfinal at the Australian Open were his best results. He hit a low point following his second-round exit from the Miami Open.
The loss in Miami proved to be a massive wake-up call for Alcaraz. He hasn't lost prior to the final of a tournament since then. He won the Monte-Carlo Masters, Italian Open and French Open during the clay swing, and finished as the runner-up at the Barcelona Open.
Alcaraz won the title at Queen's Club and was the runner-up at Wimbledon during the grass season. He has been on a roll since then, winning the Cincinnati Open, US Open and Japan Open. He skipped the Shanghai Masters due to an injury.
While the Spaniard received a first-round bye in Paris, Norrie was up against Sebastian Baez. Despite some pushback from his opponent, the Brit managed to outfox him in the end to register a 6-3, 6-4 victory.

Carlos Alcaraz vs Cameron Norrie prediction
Alcaraz needs to make at least the semifinals of the Paris Masters in order to retain his hold on the No. 1 ranking. An early exit coupled with Jannik Sinner's victory would displace the Spaniard from the summit. However, with his current form, he will be the favorite to reach at least the final.
Alcaraz has won his last three ATP tournaments, and hasn't lost prior to the final since the start of April. With two Major titles and three Masters 1000 titles, this has been a career-best season for him. He has a 67-7 record for the season, while Norrie has won a total of 50 matches since the start of 2024.
Norrie has also tallied 17 wins at the Masters 1000 level since the start of 2023. Alcaraz, on the other hand, has a 21-2 record at the Masters 1000 level this year. Their results speak for themselves. While Norrie has a couple of wins over Alcaraz, both of them came when he was a top 15 player. He's far from his peak these days, thus making the possibility of an upset quite slim.
Pick: Carlos Alcaraz to win in straight sets.
