Alexei Popyrin vs Zizou Bergs prediction

Alexei Popyrin’s bid to push into the world’s top 20 for the first time begins with his maiden outing on grass.

The Aussie is currently at a career-high 21 in the rankings and will meet Zizou Bergs in the round of 16.

The Belgian edged his compatriot Alexander Blockx with many surprised that the qualifier took it to the wire before Bergs prevailed 6-3 1-6 7-6 in the first round.

This will be the second encounter between Bergs and Popyrin with the fourth seed here running out a 7-6 7-5 winner when they met at Indian Wells earlier this year.

Bergs can point to a Challenger triumph in a semi-final on grass in Ilkley three years ago, but Popyrin is enjoying a strong year and with the Aussie having the more dominant serve, it’s unlikely the world number 63 will find the consistency to pull off a shock this time around.
