On the banks, another Spanish classic: Moyà vs. Ferrero
Carlos Moyà and Juan Carlos Ferrero, formerly rivals on the track and now as coaches. There is a lot of history of Spanish tennis in this quarter duel Rafa Nadal vs. Carlos Alcaraz.

Two different situations
Rafa Nadal will reappear after a month and a half away due to a rib injury. Also, the three-plus-hour marathon against David Goffin, who will return from four match points when he would have won the straight sets,
caused by lameness of the swollen left foot, suffering an “incurable” chronic injury, as underlined by Manacorí.

Carlos Alcaraz is on his way.
He won the Miami Masters 1000, stumbled against Sebastian Korda early in Monte Carlo but then won against Godó.
