The seventh-seeded American stunned the tennis world by qualifying for the tournament and then defeating world No. XX Andrey Rublev in the semifinals, claiming his first Top XX victory before falling to Felix Auger-Aliassime in a thrilling three-set final. His remarkable hard-court season has included victories over David Goffin, Mattia Bellucci, and defending champion Alexander Bublik en route to his maiden ATP final. In Los Cabos, Kovacevic has looked composed and dangerous, overcoming Hady Habib in a three-set opener before dismantling Luis Carlos Alvarez in straight sets. His serving has been particularly impressive, with his aggressive baseline game perfectly suited to the outdoor hard courts of Los Cabos where he’s making his tournament debut. ⸻ Ficovich – The Giant-Killer Juan Pablo Ficovich enters this encounter riding a wave of stunning upset victories that have marked his best ATP run of the season. The 28-year-old Argentine has shown remarkable fighting spirit throughout Los Cabos, defeating qualifier Alibek Kachmazov in straight sets before producing perhaps the upset of the tournament by stunning fourth seed Quentin Halys in a thrilling three-set battle. His victory over Halys was particularly impressive, as Ficovich saved crucial break points and converted five of twelve break point opportunities to win 6-4, 6-7(5), 6-3 in two hours and XX minutes. The resilient Argentine has been working with coaches Alejandro Fabbri and Luciano Carluccio, and his patient baseline game has troubled higher-ranked opponents consistently. His breakthrough Los Cabos run represents his first multiple ATP-level victories at a single tournament, demonstrating his growing maturity on the main tour. ⸻ So… What Happens? This marks the third career meeting between these two determined players, with their head-to-head record standing at 1-1. Their most recent encounter came at the Morelos Challenger in April, where Kovacevic prevailed 3-6, 6-4, 7-5 to reverse the result of their first meeting in Champaign back in November, where Ficovich won 7-6(6), 6-1. Both previous matches took place on hard courts, making this Los Cabos clash particularly intriguing given their contrasting recent form and momentum. Kovacevic brings superior experience at this level and proven ability to handle pressure situations, having reached an ATP final and defeated multiple top-seeded players this season. However, Ficovich’s fearless approach and current giant-killing form make him genuinely dangerous against established players. The key battle will be Kovacevic’s explosive power and quarterfinal experience against Ficovich’s relentless determination and nothing-to-lose mentality in the challenging conditions of Los Cabos. ⸻ 🔮 Prediction: Kovacevic to win – His superior recent form at ATP level and breakthrough confidence from his Montpellier run give him the edge, though Ficovich’s upset victories and fighting spirit will make this competitive. Upset watch: Ficovich’s stunning victory over Halys and demonstrated ability to trouble higher-ranked opponents make him genuinely dangerous – if Kovacevic shows any signs of complacency or struggles with the pressure of being the favorite, the Argentine could pull off another statement victory. ⸻ 💸 Betting thoughts (safer picks): ✅ Over XXXX total games: ✅ Ficovich handicap +4.5 games: 🟨 Kovacevic to win in X sets: XXXXX engagements  **Related Topics** [momentum](/topic/momentum) [Post Link](https://x.com/ml_previews/status/1945979701677166883)
