Sinner vs. Zverev Odds
Game Preview
Jannik Sinner smashed the Open Banc Sabadell champion from Barcelona, Arthur Fils, 6-2, 6-4 in the semifinals. The Italian is ruthless in the last two events, not allowing a single break point. Apart from losing a set in the opening match of the tournament, he triumphed in all other events in straight sets.
Right now, Sinner has 4 consecutive Masters titles, and wants to become the first player with 5, but he needs to beat Zverev first.
Alexander Zverev likes playing in Madrid, where he previously won two titles in 2018 and 2020. He reached the final by taking down Belgian surprise Alexander Blockx 6-2, 7-5, winning 85% of his first-serve points. Zverev’s game is perfectly suited to the thin air in Madrid (due to the high altitude), where his serve becomes much faster, and flat hits become much faster than usual.
Zverev has to find a way to disrupt Sinner’s baseline game, otherwise, he won’t be able to overpower the Italian, no matter all the favorable circumstances.
Sinner vs. Zverev Head to Head
The current result is 9-4 in Sinner’s favor. But what is more important is that Sinner has won the past 8 straight matches against Zverev, three of them this year, all in straight sets.
Sinner vs. Zverev Predictions
Jannik trashed Zverev in the Monte Carlo semis, 6-1, 6-4, and we are still under the impression of that matchup. Sure, there are some circumstances that go in Zverev’s favor, but overall, Sinner will win this in straight sets.
