Lukas Klein was not supposed to give Alexander Zverev such problems in the second round of the AO-2024.

Alex Michelsen

Before the Australian Open, Alex Michelsen played two hardcourt tournaments in which he played six matches, winning four and losing two. In Melbourne, the American defeated the Australian McCabe and the Czech Lehecka in 4 sets. The game against Lehecka lasted two hours and 43 minutes, 4:6, 6:3, 6:4, 6:4 in favor of Michelsen.

Expert Betting Tips

Zverev's situation is similar to Daniil Medvedev's. The German needs to stay fresh before the decisive matches and one or two more long matches, and Alexander will not be able to compete physically with the strongest tennis players who came to Melbourne. Considering all this, we believe that Zverev will do his best to win on Saturday in the shortest possible time.
