Alejandro Tabilo vs Alexander Zverev Prediction & Picks - ATP Italian Open

Prediction published on 5/15/24, 9:30 AM  by Edgar Jibran | Modified on 5/16/24 at 2:58 PM in ATP Italian Open Picks

The first semifinal of the ATP 1000 in Rome is already confirmed to be played next Friday, May 17th when Alejandro Tabilo faces Alexander Zverev at 07:30 am Central Time, match that for sure is the most important on Tabilo’s career, so he must try to keep going forward with his amazing performance that allowed him to eliminate Djokovic in the third round of the main-draw.

Even so, Tabilo mustn’t be overconfident, because even when he won all his disputed matches in Rome in straight sets, the match against Zverev is going to be very challenging as the German comes with a great level too. However, Tabilo committed less than 10 unforced errors during his matches against Djokovic and Zhang, so it’s a little bit weird that he’s not even considered by the bookmakers’ odds as a candidate to advance to the final.

On Zverev’s case, he’s also achieved to win all his disputed matches in straight sets, and the fact that he was able to eliminate Taylor Fritz in less than 1 hour and a half is putting him as the strongest player in the semifinals. Also, it’s important to remark that he has won all his matches in less than 2 hours, so it’s expected to have him on a great shape to compete against the current best Latin American player.
