Alexander Zverev vs Taylor Fritz prediction
Alexander Zverev extended his winning streak to 10 matches as he edged past Raphael Collignon in two close sets at the Halle Open. The French Open champion saved three set points in a lengthy first set tiebreak, clinching it with a stunning backhand down the line. There were no breaks of serve in the match, but that was no problem for the German as he won 7-6 (10) 7-6 (2).
Taylor Fritz is his next opponent. The American exacted revenge over compatriot Ben Shelton for his defeat in the final of the Stuttgart Open last week, as he came from a set down to win 6-7 (5) 7-6 (8) 7-6 (3). Fritz saved a match point in the second set tiebreak and is now through to a third tour-level final of the campaign.
Fritz leads 9-5 in the head-to-head and has won their last six matches, but it’s 2-2 on grass. Despite the American having the upper hand in recent times, their matches are usually very competitive. This should be a close one, with both players likely to dominate on serve.
