Ruud vs Zeppieri Head-to-Head

Casper Ruud and Giulio Zeppieri will be playing for the first time on the ATP Tour. Ruud will come in as the heavy favorite, returning as last year’s finalist he will have far more experience and expectations to continue moving through the draw.

Ruud vs Zeppieri Prediction

Casper Ruud played a solid opening match, and he’s shown some positive signs in the last few weeks in general. He played at a great level in Rome, and despite suffering an upset in Geneva, he lost to an on-fire player. Ruud will like the slow conditions here, and despite recent form and other players being potentially favored, Ruud should not be underestimated to make his way through the draw. Guilio Zeppieri took down Bublik in five sets, and saved Ruud the trouble of facing a potentially tougher opponent. Ruud should close this one out and move through at the 2023 French Open.
