Medvedev vs Zverev Prediction

With rain halting play for the second day in succession at the Italian Open, Alexander Zverev will have to play two matches on Tuesday after his third-round match against J.J. Wolf resumed 24 hours later from the first point. The German had no trouble in subduing Hurkacz’s conqueror 6-4, 7-5, converting three of his eight break points and hammering 10 aces. Daniil Medvedev completed his third-round match on Monday, facing a fierce challenger in Bernabe Zapata Miralles who took him to his absolute limits in a three-set win. The h2h between Medvedev and Zverev was tied at 6-all at the start of the season. But a pair of hard-fought victories by the Russian in 2023 has seen him wrestle control of the series. Zverev, it should be noted, has come close in getting the win both times, with their chaotic Monte Carlo encounter being his best chance, spurning match points and losing in a third-set breaker. Even though it is arguable that Zverev might be an equal or better than Medvedev on hard, he is vastly the better player on clay courts. And now that he is breathing down Medvedev’s neck again, he might just finally get that win he desires.
