Lorenzo Sonego vs Alexander Zverev prediction

Alexander Zverev will aim to put a poor run behind him when he faces Lorenzo Sonego for the sixth time.

The German lost both of his singles matches at the Laver Cup and that came on the back of a poor showing at the US Open.

However, the second seed has a flawless 5-0 lead over Sonego and clearly has a game-plan and style that don’t suit the Italian.

The world number 44 hasn’t been pulling up any trees himself of late and has been rather inconsistent with no back-to-back wins since Wimbledon.

On his day, Sonego is a maverick who can take on anyone, but he won’t halt Zverev and the world number three’s powerhouse serve here.
