Alexander Zverev vs Carlos Alcaraz Prediction & Picks - ATP French Open

 by Bradley Gibbs | in ATP French Open Picks

On Sunday at Roland Garros, it's time for the men's final. Two of the best players in the world will collide at the iconic Parisian venue as Carlos Alcaraz, who is now the youngest ever player to reach a Grand Slam final on all three surfaces, takes on Alexander Zverev. There's little between the pair in the rankings, with the Spaniard currently ranking third and the German ranking fourth. Will we see the fact that little separate the two in the rankings play out on the court? Or can one of these high-ranking players make light work of claiming glory? We'll soon find out.
The early lines ahead of this fixture would suggest that Alcaraz is the most likely winner, which is about right given that he is the Grand Slam winner out of the two. At the time of writing, you can take Alcaraz to win the final at odds of around -165, while Zverev is available at odds of around +240. The match is expected to go beyond three sets, with 'Over 3.5 Sets' favoured over 'Under 3.5 Sets at the early odds, though a five-setter isn't expected, though if you do fancy this final to be something of a classic, you can bet on 'Over 4.5 Sets' at odds of +245.

Alexander Zverev - Carlos Alcaraz: Form Analysis

Both players arrive at this stage in excellent form. Alcaraz's clay-court winning run extends back only to the start of the tournament as he chose to rest and recover following his defeat to Rublev in Madrid a while back, so in that sense. Zverev is in slightly better form having won the event in Rome before attending the French Open.

Alexander Zverev & Carlos Alcaraz Squad Analysis

In terms of fitness, both players seem to have reached the final in good condition, with neither having any injury doubts. Zverev could have slightly more in terms of fitness as he had to play one less set in his semi-final, though he's also had less time to rest, having played after Alcaraz finished against Sinner.

Alexander Zverev - Carlos Alcaraz Key Points

  1. This will be the third meeting between the pair in Grand Slams.

  3. In two of the previous three Grand Slam meetings between the pair, more than three sets have been played.

Our Alexander Zverev vs Carlos Alcaraz Prediction

Two massively in-form clay-court players clash here, so it's far from an easy match to call. I must admit that I thought Ruud had enough in the locker to defeat Zverev, so the fact that the German got the job done there, coming from a set down, shows what sort of form he's in right now. Carlos Alcaraz is also in fantastic form, winning that thrilling five-set encounter against Jannik Sinner to reach this final. Of course, Alcaraz as the two-time Grand Slam winner, is a worthy favourite and if I'm being completely honest, I'll be surprised if he doesn't come out on top here, but that's not to say it'll be easy. Looking at the lines, 'Over 3.5 Sets' looks like the best option. When the pair previously met at Roland Garros, they shared four sets and I'm betting that we see the same here. Our Prediction: Over 3.5 Sets.

Alexander Zverev vs Carlos Alcaraz - Other Interesting Picks

Carlos Alcaraz to Win 3-1

In addition to betting on 'Over 3.5 Sets' as a secondary option, betting on Alcaraz to win three sets to one appeals. Alcaraz has a positive clay-court record against Zverev, while he probably gained more from his semi-final win against recent Grand Slam winner Sinner than Zverev did by beating Ruud, thus leaving him better placed to earn victory here. Add in that the Spaniard won by three sets to one when the pair last met at the French Open in 2022 and such a bet stands out.
