Alexander Zverev vs Valentin Royer Match Prediction
Although Zverev is ranked third in the ATP rankings, he has not been happy with his recent results. From the last few months, he has only made it to the third round of the US Open and has lost in two sets to De Minaur and Fritz at the Laver Cup, as well as a close match against Medvedev in the third game of the tournament in Beijing. Before that, he had a tough victory over Muta, so his current form is not great. With his position in the final being so close, Zverev does not have a lot of motivation for the upcoming tournament. In contrast, Roye has had excellent practice in China, playing seven matches in Hangzhou and winning three in Shanghai. It seems that Zverev will not have an easy time in the upcoming game, as the Frenchman is known to put up a good fight against the third-ranked player. While we doubt that Roye will ultimately win, we would not be surprised if he were to win a set against the outsider.. We are hoping for a similar result to the match between Zverev and Mutua in Beijing.
