Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-8.5) for Zverev – 2.17.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 31.5 – 1.70.
Zapata Miralles has already shown his best. He is unlikely to overcome the barrier of the 1/8 finals. Zverev has rectified the mistakes he made against Baez and played much more confidently against Nakashima.
Before Roland Garros, Zapata Miralles did not impress with his results. The Spaniard was losing to players such as Andrej Martin and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.

Zverev has already managed to tickle the nerves of his fans, almost getting knocked out after the second round. Most interestingly, Zverev’s defeat would hardly have come as a big surprise. He has had enough sudden setbacks already this year.
In the match against Sebastian Baez, Alexander was losing 0-2 in sets and in the fifth set, he scored a match point. Almost a heroic comeback (2-6, 4-6, 6-1, 6-2, 7-5).
Zverev played better in the third round, defeating Brandon Nakashima (7-6, 6-3, 7-6) in three sets. However, two sets were only decided in the tie-break.
Zverev reached the fourth round at the French major for the fifth time in a row.
Zverev has won eight of his last nine battles at Roland Garros.
He has played 17 games on clay this season and has 13 wins.
Bernabe Zapata Miralles:
A day he’ll never forget ?

Zapata-Miralles, meanwhile, reached the fourth round of the Grand Slam tournament for the first time in his career. Moreover, he is the first qualifier from Spain in the second week of the major.
Here’s the trouble, instead of being happy, Bernabe is in the midst of a lot of tension. Police suspect that his Roland Garros qualifying match may have been fixed. The first-round qualifying game against Dudi Sela came under suspicion. Real-time betting on the loss of Cela’s serve in the second set drew the attention of the French police. All in all, a tricky story.
In the main draw, Zapata Miralles started with a win over Michael Mmoh (7-6, 6-3, 7-5) before a sensational win over Taylor Fritz (3-6, 6-2, 6-2, 6-3).
In the third round, Bernabe again had to play against the US representative. This time he stopped John Isner (6-4, 3-6, 6-4, 7-6, 6-3). Bernabe could easily have ended the match in the fourth set, but allowed his opponent to win back. However, in the fifth set, Zapata Miralles got the better of a visibly tired Isner.
Zapata Miralles has lost each of his past seven fixtures as underdog.
He has played 30 games on clay this season and has 19 wins.
