The stage is all set to witness one of the best matches of the tournament so far in the ongoing ATP Paris Masters. Two of the favorites, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Alexander Zverev will be facing off against each other to book their place in the quarter-final of the tournament. Once regarded as the upcoming sensations, these two players have been out of touch and would be looking to make an impact in Paris.

However, with only one spot on the line, only one among them will be able to make it through. But who among the two poses a strong hand over his opponent? Let’s find out!

Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Alexander Zverev: preview

Regarded as one of the upcoming tennis sensations, Stefanos Tsitsipas did not have the best of the years. Having struggled with form, the Greek player is desperate to turn things around in Paris. Having faced Felix Auger Aliassime in the first round in Paris, the Greek player showed signs of the versatility that he possesses. He defeated the Canadian in straight sets with a scoreline of 6-3, 7-6 and made his way into the next round.

Having made his way into the semi-finals earlier at the European Open and at the Vienna Open, the Greek player finally looks to have gotten his long-lost momentum and is willing to make an impact in Paris. On the other hand, his opponent, Alexander Zverev has also struggled with form in the recent few months.

Making his journey into the round of 16, he faced the tough task of Marton Fucsovics in the first round and then defeated Ugo Humbert in the net round. However, in both the matches that he played, he had to pull in some extra effort and then make it through to the next round as both the matches were 3-set-thriller.

Tsitsipas vs Zverev: Head-to-head

Interestingly, these two players have faced each other a total of 12 times and Tsitsipas has twice the win that Zverev has. With 8 wins to his name as compared to Zverev’s 4, Stefanos Tsitsipas poses a strong hand over his German rival. The first clash came back in 2018 at Washington DC. It was won by Alexander Zverev as he managed to defeat the Greek sensation in straight sets with a scoreline of 6-2, 6-4.

On the other hand, their latest encounter came a year ago when the two faced off each other at the Italian Open. In an evenly contested match, Tsitsipas managed to lay his hands on victory after a hard-fought 3-set-thriller. The final scoreline of the match remained 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, in favor of Tsitsipas.

Prediction: Stefanos Tsitsipsa to lay hands on victory and make it through

One thing is for sure, these two will produce one of the best matches at the Paris Masters so far. With Stefanos Tsitsipas coming into his long-lost form, he looks to have an upper edge over his German opponent. Not only this, but the head-to-head stats also suggest that the Greek player has proved to be strong whenever the two have faced off against each other.

However, Alexander Zverev, looking to end the year on a high will be looking to take the win in this match and reduce the gap in the head-to-0head stats. Not only this, he would be determined to get back to his form and make a bold statement with a win here. Who are you rooting for? Do let us know in the comments below!
