My tennis predictions today target an intriguing contest between Norrie and Zverev in the third round of Wimbledon 2024. It’s a battle between the former British number one and a German powerhouse, and I’ve shared my thoughts within.

Our favourite Cameron Norrie vs Alexander Zverev predictions

We’re reaching the end of the first week of Wimbledon 2024, meaning the matches are getting tighter and ever more intriguing. This third round should be an epic match, too, with previous semi-finalist Norrie looking in fine form. He’ll need to bring his best to challenge the 4th seed, too; hence, I’ve gone for the following markets:

Norrie to win a set @ 1/1 (2.00)

Norrie is the clear underdog here looking at the moneyline odds. Despite that, I feel he has a decent chance of taking a set from Zverev. I say this as he’s in good form, dispatching Draper in straight sets last round with solid serving and clever play all around. Of course, he has the home crowd for an added boost, too.

Over 37.5 games @ 2/1 (3.00)

This match could easily go the distance if both men step it up on the grass. Zverev is the favorite, sure, but Norrie is not a pushover on the grass. In fact, he can soak up the German’s powerful game and cause the world number 4 serious problems on this surface. For that reason, this market is an appealing choice.

Cameron Norrie vs Alexander Zverev odds

Zverev has an 86.70% chance of coming through this match compared with a 20% chance for Norrie – as per the latest odds.

Clash of styles set for Centre Court at Wimbledon 2024

This match is approaching quickly, so let me share a quick preview for both Norrie and Zverev now:

Cameron Norrie preview

Norrie has improved his 2024 season once the grass court swing arrived a few weeks back. He’s looking determined, and he’s hitting the ball well at Wimbledon, too, as proven by an unexpected straight-set win over Draper. Norrie will have fond memories of what he can achieve in this slam, too, and I say this as he’s reached the semi-finals in the past!

Alexander Zverev preview

Zverev comes into this match as the clear favourite since he’s the 4th seed and due to his 2024 form in general. He made the semis in Australia and the finals of the French Open in 2024 alone, and he will be looking to back this up at Wimbledon. Furthermore, he’s looked confident in the first two rounds, although he’s not always had great success in SW19.

Norrie vs Zverev head to head

Norrie fans will want to look away now. The Brit has lost to Zverev in all five of their previous meetings, putting him at a 0-5 deficit in the H2H department. However, there’s hope! He pushed Zverev to a fifth-set tie-break at the Australian Open in January, which helps build excitement for this clash.
