The 21-year-old Alcaraz is clearly the much better player heading into this match, even though Lajovic has been around for much longer. Ideally, this should be an easy match for Alcaraz, who should move on without much fuss.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p>The Spaniard has had a great outing since the clay season began, winning the Monte-Carlo Masters and making it to the final in Barcelona, where he lost to Holger Rune. Unfortunately, though, he was unable to compete in Madrid due to an injury, but his form on clay has been stellar thus far.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Things have been quite challenging for the Serb, who hasn&rsquo;t made any deep runs so far. In Rome, he has come through to the main draw after defeating Cameron Norrie and Ethan Quinn in the qualifiers and Yoshihito Nishioka in the first round.&nbsp;<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carlos Alcaraz vs Dusan Lajovic Head-to-Head Record<\/h2><p>The pair of Alcaraz and Lajovic have played each other 4 times in their careers thus far. The Spaniard holds a clear edge, winning all 4 matches, which include 2 on hard courts and 2 on clay. However, their most recent match came at the ATP Masters 1000 event in Miami in 2023.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Alcaraz has been so dominant against the Serbian that he is yet to drop a set against the 34-year-old Lajovic.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Year<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Event<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Round<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Score<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2022<\/td><td>Australian Open<\/td><td>Round of 64<\/td><td>Carlos Alcaraz<\/td><td>6-2, 6-1, 7-5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2023<\/td><td>Buenos Aires<\/td><td>Quarterfinal<\/td><td>Carlos Alcaraz<\/td><td>6-4, 6-2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2023<\/td><td>Rio de Janeiro<\/td><td>Quarterfinal<\/td><td>Carlos Alcaraz<\/td><td>6-4, 7-6(0)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2023<\/td><td>ATP Masters 1000 Miami<\/td><td>Round of 32<\/td><td>Carlos Alcaraz<\/td><td>6-0 7-6(5)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><p><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/2025-italian-open-betting-odds-what-are-jannik-sinners-odds-to-win-rome-masters\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>2025 Italian Open Betting Odds &ndash; What Are Jannik Sinner&rsquo;s Odds to Win Rome Masters?<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carlos Alcaraz vs Dusan Lajovic Comparison<\/h2><p>Despite being just 21 years of age, Alcaraz has already achieved great things in the sport.

After starting my professional career as a French-to-English translator, working as a content writer is a new adventure for me. I started out in the sports media field for two main reasons: my love for sports in general, especially the NFL, NBA, and Tennis, as well as my passion for writing. The best part of this job is that I get to write a variety of pieces with the freedom to explore content from various angles. It also enables me to stay up to date with the sporting world, which otherwise can be difficult to do in the day-to-day grind. In a world full of chaos, sports unite and entertain like nothing else!","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/devakul"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/devavrat\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50435"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50435"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50435\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":50445,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50435\/revisions\/50445"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50444"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50435"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50435"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50435"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
