Alexander Zverev vs Felix Auger-Aliassime: Preview
Alexander Zverev picks up his 300th career win as he defeats Alex De Minaur 6-2, 3-6, 6-2 in 1 hour and 42 minutes to advance into the quarter-finals, his 2nd qualification into the last-8 at the tournament previously reaching the stage in 2017. This is his fifth consecutive quarter-final qualification starting from the delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympics this year where he won the Gold medal.
Felix Auger-Aliassime makes a stunning comeback against Cameron Norrie defeating the Indian Wells champion 2-6 7-6(6), 6-4 in 2 hours and 36 minutes and had to save 3 match points as well in the process. It is a massive confidence booster win for the young Canadian who made it to the semis of the 2021 US Open and then suffered a shocking 2nd round defeat at the Indian Wells. This will be his maiden quarter-final appearance in Vienna.
Alexander Zverev vs Felix Auger-Aliassime: Head-to-Head
This will be the fourth meeting between the duo who last met in the 4th round of the 2021 Wimbledon in which Felix won in 5-sets to pick up his 1st career win against the German. The duo has played one match each on all 4 surfaces. Zverev however continues to lead the head-to-head 3-1.
Alexander Zverev vs Felix Auger-Aliassime: Prediction
Felix will come into the tie with a career indoor hardcourt record of 34-23 and is 2-2 on the surface this season while being 35-21 across all surfaces this season. Alexander will take the court with a career indoor hardcourt record of 69-38 and has a 3-1 surface season record. He is 49-13 for the season across all surfaces.
Looking at these numbers, their past performances and recent form coming into the match, it will be difficult to predict an outright winner as both the players have displayed their calibre and skill level time and again this season. Zverev nevertheless, remains the favourite for his better consistency on hardcourts as compared to Felix who has had a mixed run on the surface.
Prediction: Alexander Zverev to win in 3-sets.
