TennisSection previews the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters second-round match featuring Alexander Zverev vs Roberto Bautista Agut on Wednesday, April 12, 2023.

Zverev vs Bautista Agut Match Preview and Prediction

Will Alexander Zverev get the win? Will Roberto Bautista Agut pull off the upset? This will be an interesting one, where we have one of the world’s best on clay taking on a tough opponent. Who will triumph and move through to the Round of 16 at the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters?

Alexander Zverev certainly won ugly against Alexander Bublik, not playing his best tennis but still managing to get through in the end. He says clay is his most natural surface, and that his movement was the best part of his game in this match, a very good sign considering his injury. Let’s see if Zverev is able to keep up his level and take down Roberto Bautista Agut for a place in the last 16 of the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters.

Roberto Bautista Agut took down Filip Krajinovic, 5-7, 7-6(10), 6-1, playing an extremely tight two sets before rolling through in the 3rd set after a collapse from his opponent. Although he’s playing Alexander Zverev on a surface which would certainly favor him at the moment, he’ll be fully aware of Zverev’s current issues and the inconsistencies that come with it. Let’s see if the Spaniard is able to pull off the upset and move on at the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters.

Zverev vs Bautista Agut Prediction and Pick

Alexander Zverev and Roberto Bautista Agut have met 6 times before, with Alexander Zverev leading the head to head 4-2. With Bautista Agut taking their first two meetings many years ago, Zverev took their next four in more recent years, although they still haven’t met since 2018. Zverev will be the favorite coming into this one, and although I expect it to be challenging, he should get by and go through at the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters.
