Carlos Alcaraz resumes his bid to return to world number one against Jack Draper in the Indian Wells Masters fourth round.

Two of the most exciting youngsters in tennis go head to head in California for a place in the quarter-finals, while both are yet to drop a set this fortnight.

Alcaraz is, of course, aiming to reclaim top spot in the ATP rankings, having surrendered it to Novak Djokovic after missing the Australian Open.

The Spaniard must land his third ATP Masters 1000 title to do so, and has already seen off Thanasi Kokkinakis 6-3, 6-3, as well as Tallon Griekspoor 7-6(4), 6-3.

The 19-year-old, who was a semi-finalist here 12 months ago, is now set to take on a British left-hander for the third time in as many tournaments.

Indeed, he shared a win apiece with Cameron Norrie in the Championship matches in Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro, and will not be taking anything for granted against Draper.

The Briton was beaten by Alcaraz in three sets in their only previous encounter in Basel in October, but he is enjoying an impressive debut in Indian Wells.

Draper swept aside Swiss qualifier Leandro Riedi 6-1, 6-1, before seeing off two of his compatriots in straight sets. First, Daniel Evans was beaten 6-4, 6-2, while he overcame idol Andy Murray 7-6(6), 6-2.

The 21-year-old now looks to build on that momentum by claiming what would be the biggest win of his career to date.

A showdown with either Felix Auger-Aliassime or Tommy Paul awaits the winner in the Indian Wells Masters quarter-finals.

Play gets underway at around 1am GMT on Wednesday and will be contested over the best of three sets in California.
