Match Analysis

Matteo Berrettini enters the match with a form index of 23.85 and an Elo rating of 1462.07, indicating his experience and skill level. His surface strength index of 12.8 reflects a solid performance on hard courts, and he boasts a mean serve index of 98.28, which is notably higher than Zeppieri's 95.19. This 3.09-point difference in serve index, while not exceeding the 5-point threshold, still indicates Berrettini's strong serving capabilities. In contrast, Zeppieri holds a better mean return index of 86.55 compared to Berrettini's 84.27, a difference that may play a key role in breaking serves during the match. Recent performances reveal a stark contrast in form: Berrettini has struggled, losing two of his last three matches against ranked opponents, including a recent defeat to Adrian Mannarino in Shanghai. Conversely, Zeppieri has shown resilience, winning both of his last matches in Stockholm without dropping a set, although he faced lower-ranked opponents. This could indicate a confidence boost for Zeppieri as he steps onto the court against Berrettini.

Final Prediction

Matteo Berrettini's higher rank, experience, and superior serve index provide him with an edge in this matchup. However, Giulio Zeppieri's recent momentum and strong return game could challenge Berrettini's service games. A key factor to watch will be how effectively Berrettini can serve against Zeppieri's returning capabilities, as this could dictate the flow of the match.
