Zverev is back among the top 10 players in the world but the German has a losing record against Medvedev. Can he win this one against the odds?

Alexander Zverev +2.5 @ 1/1 (2.00)

If you want to pick a match that is difficult to predict, this is the one. Both players have a good season, and they have met many times before. Every match between them has been epic, so we do not expect anything less this time as well. Zverev won the last match, ending Medvedev’s four-game winning streak. Zverev has been playing very well in Asia so far, so the least he would do is cover the +2.5 games spread in this match.

First set over 10.5 games @ 9/4 (3.25)

Both players know each other very well and will bring their best game in the semifinal. They both have excellent serves and on this surface it will be hard to break. They haven’t gone over 10.5 games in the opening set in their last three matches, so it is about the time to do that.
