Alexander Zverev Player Overview
🎾 Last year, Zverev exited in the round of 16 in Miami, but he has had deeper runs in this tournament before: reaching the final in 2018 and the semifinals in 2024. This season has started quite well for the German player, as he has already made two deep runs: reaching the semifinals of the Australian Open and Indian Wells.
🔔 Zverev's last two matches in Miami have been incredibly tough, largely because he faced opponents who are also powerful servers. It took three sets to overcome Croatia's Marin Cilic, while he needed two tiebreak sets against France's Quentin Halys (7-6, 7-6). Across these two matches, Alexander delivered a total of 35 aces.
Match Results: Alexander Zverev
Editorial Prediction
As we noted earlier, Zverev typically struggles against big servers, but Cerundolo doesn't fall into that category. In other aspects of the game, the opponents are fairly matched, though the German holds an edge with his vast experience. We believe Alexander's strong first serve will force his opponent into frequent errors. Our recommended bet is on Zverev with a -2.5 handicap.
