Delray Beach Open: Paul vs Albot Tennis Prediction & Pick

TennisSection previews the 2023 Delray Beach Open as Tommy Paul takes on Radu Albot in the quarterfinals on Friday, February 17, 2023.

Will Tommy Paul get the win? Will Radu Albot pull off the upset? This will be an interesting one, where we have the No. 2 ranked American looking to advance. Who will triumph and move through to the semifinals at the 2023 Delray Beach Open?

Tommy Paul is playing the best tennis of his life at the moment, and I don’t expect him to stop winning here. Radu Albot will certainly give his all, but Paul is looking very strong at the moment so I expect him to meet expectations and grab this win to book himself a place in the last four where he will face off against Mmoh/McDonald for a spot in the final of the 2023 Delray Beach Open.

Radu Albot has a very tough match ahead of him as he takes on 2nd seed Tommy Paul, who is not only ranked much higher than him, but someone who is also playing at a higher level of tennis at the moment. With Paul’s ability to play on the front and back foot, I don’t see much hope for Albot as Paul looks to advance at the 2023 Delray Beach Open.

Tommy Paul and Radu Albot have met once before, with Tommy Paul leading the head to head 1-0. Their one meeting came back in 2020, and if Paul was able to win back then, he certainly should be able to replicate that result come this quarterfinal matchup to decide one of our semifinalists here at the 2023 Delray Beach Open.
