Alexander Zverev v Tallon Griekspoor Head to Head
There have been seven previous meetings between these two players with Zverev leading 6-1.
Four of these matches came in 2024, at the Indian Wells Masters here, French Open, Shanghai Masters and Paris Masters, all of which were won by Zverev.
Zverev Coming off Some Underwhelming Showing after Australian Open
Alexander Zverev hasn’t won a Grand Slam title though he has come close. One such occasion was at the Australian Open earlier this year when he reached the final but world number one Jannik Sinner proved to be too good for him.
Since then, Zverev looks to be off the boil.
He has featured in three tournaments including two in the South American clay swing and is 4-3 on win-loss.
This includes two tournaments, in Buenos Aires and Acapulco where he won a round and lost in the very next. Defeats to Francisco Cerundolo, Francisco Comesana and Learner Tien will not sit too nicely for Zverev as he looks to get back to his winning ways in a tournament where he has never gone beyond the quarterfinals.

Griekspoor Wins a Tussle against Kecmanovic
At 1/1, Tallon Griekspoor was just about the second-favourite going up against Miomir Kecmanovic in his opener here.
And the match also looked to be headed his opponent’s way when Kecmanovic scraped through to winning the first set in a tie-breaker.
Griekspoor, who was entering this tournament on the back of a semifinal appearance in Dubai and a 7-5 win-loss record, fought back to win the next two 6-4, 6-3 and sealed his second round berth against someone he finds very difficult to surmount.
His first round encounter lasted two hours and 18 minutes and saw Griekspoor face three break-points and save every single one of them. In turn he broke Kecmanovic’s serve thrice.
Zverev v Griekspoor Predictions
Zverev will be a runaway favourite here given his record against Grieskpoor and the obvious parity in their overall tennis quality. Backing him for a straight-set win but in which one set could head into a tie-breaker.
