Dimitrov looks promising this year as he reached the 3rd round of all Grand Slam events this season. After a shaky first-round match, he showed absolute domination against the British legend, Andy Murray. Zverev has also been making an impressive comeback in the Tour after his injury.

The two have played against each other six times, with Zverev leading the Head to head 5-1. The match would be a challenging one for both of them, but based on the past, the German is expected to extend his winning streak against Dimitrov in the next round of the tournament.

Prediction: Zverev to win in 5 sets.
