Bu's surface strength index of 8.65 highlights his capability on hard courts, complemented by a strong mean serve index of 97.38 and a mean return index of 86.27. In contrast, Zhizhen Zhang is ranked 192, with a lower form index of 18.54 and a significantly higher Elo rating of 1081.67. Zhang also shows no fatigue, but his surface strength index of 8.20, mean serve index of 96.73, and mean return index of 85.27 place him at a slight disadvantage compared to Bu's metrics, particularly in serve and return effectiveness. In their recent performances, Bu has shown stronger results, winning two out of his last three matches, including impressive victories against notable opponents like Stefanos Tsitsipas. His only loss came in a closely contested match against Botic van de Zandschulp.

This trend indicates a considerable gap in momentum and confidence between the two players.

Final Prediction

Yunchaokete Bu's superior form, coupled with his strong service and return statistics, gives him a notable edge over Zhizhen Zhang in this match. A key factor to watch will be Bu's ability to maintain pressure on Zhang's serve, as the latter has been unable to secure wins in his recent outings.
