Alexander Zverev

The German will look to gain momentum in the second round match after a shaky start against World Number 75, Marcos Giron. The 6th seed won in 4 sets with the scoreline of 6-7, 7-6, 6-3, 6-2. He would be looking to make a deep run in this year’s Australian Open as he did last year. He lost to Dominic Thiem in the Semi-Finals of the tournament in 2020.

The American on the other hand comes in as a qualifier in the tournament and defeated lucky loser, Taro Daniel in the 1st round. The scoreline of the 1st round match was 7-6, 7-6, 6-4. He has reached the 2nd round of the Australian Open for the first time and will be hoping to continue his dream run.

Alexander Zverev vs Maxime Cressy: Prediction

Alexander Zverev

In the battle of two 23-year-olds, the German is most likely to triumph against the world number 172 considering the recent form and the rankings. Zverev could prove to be too good for the qualifier and is most likely to make his way to the 3rd round.

Match Prediction: Alexander Zverev to win in 3 sets.
