Alcaraz has rediscovered some of his best form in California but Medvedev is purring too, having hardly been troubled on his run to the final.
The Spaniard had the better of his opponent in last year's Indian Wells decider and in their most recent meeting at the ATP Finals but the Russian won their clash at the US Open. It’s a hard one to pick and could be an absolute cracker. Follow the action from 22:00 CET.
17:40 CET - First up this evening is the women’s final from 19:00 CET. The decider sees top seed Iga Swiatek (22) taking on world number nine Maria Sakkari (28).
Swiatek hasn't dropped a set at Indian Wells this year and Sakkari will be a huge outsider in the clash as a result of the Pole's ominous form. However, the Greek's semi-final win over Coco Gauff (20) proved that she can mix it with the best on her day. What's more, she's beaten Swiatek three times in their last five meetings but her last win was back in 2021.
