Match Analysis

Zizou Bergs, currently ranked 49, has a form index of 52.98 and an Elo rating of 1066.54. His surface strength index on grass is relatively low at 6.95, indicating he may struggle to adapt to the grass surface. Conversely, Karen Khachanov, ranked 22, boasts a higher form index of 53.07 and an Elo rating of 1846.75. Khachanov's surface strength index of 17.53 suggests he is more proficient on grass compared to Bergs. Notably, there is a slight difference in their mean serve index, with Bergs at 97.53 and Khachanov at 95.41, a gap of only 2.12 points. However, Bergs has a stronger return index (87.90) compared to Khachanov (85.45), with a difference of 2.45 points. In their last three matches, Bergs has shown mixed results. After a promising victory against Reilly Opelka, he faltered against Gabriel Diallo, losing in straight sets. Khachanov's recent performances also reflect inconsistency, having lost to Diallo in his last match but achieving a hard-fought victory against Mackenzie McDonald prior. Both players come into this match with no cumulative fatigue from the tournament, ensuring they can perform at their best.

Final Prediction

Karen Khachanov's higher ranking, Elo rating, and better surface strength index provide him with a slight edge over Zizou Bergs in this matchup. A key factor to watch will be the effectiveness of Bergs' return game against Khachanov's serve, which could play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the match.
