Zverev will debut against Rublev at the 2024 Atp Finals: schedule, news, predictions, live TV and streaming.
From 2016 to the present, Alexander Zverev and Andrey Rublev have crossed paths a total of 9 times. On some occasions, the outcome of the match was decided right away; on others, it was not: the third set had to be played to see who between the two deserved to move on in the tournament at which they met.
Turin will be the setting, then, for their tenth meeting. And at stake will be much more than an Atp title or stellar prize money: indeed, on the plate this time is the chance to secure the scepter of king of the season and win the Masters tournament, which began on Sunday, November 10. The games are as wide open as ever, although bookmakers and analysts basically agree that the favorite for victory is solely and exclusively Jannik Sinner.
A separate argument must be made, however, for the challenge between Zverev and Rublev. The German is in a state of grace, so much so that he is currently second in the world rankings. He has won 6 of the 9 matches he has played so far against his Russian opponent, which is why it seems-but is not certain-that the outcome of this challenge is already practically written.
The prediction
The numbers and statistics reveal that Alexander Zverev has been one of the most consistent players on Tour, unlike Andrey Rublev, who has won a Masters 1000 and an Atp 250 this year despite not being too continuous. It is understood that the fast cement of Turin could, however, favor him. Zverev, on the other hand, is very calm and focused and will be so at the foot of the Mole, where he feels particularly comfortable having already won the Masters tournament. Given these premises, it seems likely that it could be the German who comes out on top in two sets in this match.
