Alexander Zverev – Statistics & current form
The German had a tough nut to crack in the semi-finals with Alejandro Tabilo. The Chilean is one of the rising stars of the year and had previously knocked world number one Novak Djokovic out of the competition.
After the first set, it looked like Tabilo would cause another sensation. With two breaks and in just around half an hour, he had taken the first set from Zverev in impressive style.
This was followed by a hard-fought second set, which Zverev only won in a tie-break. However, the Chilean’s will to resist was broken in the third. The 2019 Olympic champion took the decider 6:2 with comparative ease
Hamburger looks confident
Zverev proved his mental strength in the match. He was 2-0 down right at the start of the tiebreak of the second set and, after losing the first set, the match was almost over for the German at this point. But Zverev kept his cool and then turned the match around.
What’s more, his third final appearance in Rome shows that the tournament suits him perfectly. With this in mind, the prediction of no tie-break in Alexander Zverev’s match against Nicolas Jarry seems worth considering. This time, Zverev should record an easier victory, which is why there is no sign of another set being decided by a tiebreak
Nicolás Jarry – statistics & current form
The fact that Nicolas Jarry is in the final of the Masters Rome 2024 can be described as a big surprise. However, several top stars such as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner withdrew before the start of the competition due to injury and several other promising candidates such as Nadal and Djokovic dropped out during the course of the tournament.
From this point of view, the path to the final was comparatively easy this time, without this limitation detracting too much from the performance of the number 21 seed at the tournament in Rome
Jarry particularly enjoys playing on clay
The Chilean is also a proven clay court player, having won four of his five Challenger Tour titles on this surface, as well as all three of his ATP tournament victories to date. A look at his record at Grand Slam tournaments also shows his preference for clay.
His greatest success at this level to date came at the last edition of the French Open when he reached the round of 16. However, his form on clay was still weak this season before the tournament in Rome. In Monte Carlo, Barcelona and Madrid, Jarry was knocked out of the respective competitions on his first appearance.
At the current Masters on the Tiber, however, he was particularly convincing in the last two rounds, when Jarry was the underdog against the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas and the American Tommy Paul and still managed to win. However, both matches took a lot of energy as they went to three sets
A maximum of 22 games between Zverev and Jarry?
In view of this and the German’s particularly strong form at the moment, betting tips and odds of less than 22.5 games are also recommended for the clash between Alexander Zverev and Nicolas Jarry. In the eyes of the betting base, a clear victory for Zverev is to be expected, which is why comparatively few games are expected until a decision is reached.
Alexander Zverev – Nicolás Jarry Direct comparison / H2H result
Zverev and Jarry have already faced each other once in a final. It took place almost exactly five years ago at the clay court tournament in Geneva and ended in a narrow 2:1 victory for the German, who only won the decider in a tie-break.
His record on clay is also balanced with two wins each. However, Zverev won the most recent two duels on grass in June last year in Halle and on hard court at the tournament in Beijing in October 2023
Alexander Zverev – Nicolás Jarry tip
Alex Zverev traveled to Rome in a shaky condition. He had previously suffered early defeats at the previous tournaments in Monte Carlo, Munich and Madrid. Now, however, he has regained his confidence at his obvious favorite tournament on clay.
He only dropped one set on his way to the final and that was only against the current high-flyer Alejandro Tabilo. For the final of the Rome Masters 2024 between Alexander Zverev and Nicolas Jarry, the betting tip is therefore for the German to win in two sets
Admittedly, his opponent feels comfortable on clay, but he didn’t look as strong as Zverev at the tournament in Rome. In addition, the professional from Santiago de Chile will be less fresh, having recently played two tough three-set matches.
Furthermore, Jarry is basically one size smaller than Zverev, who is about to win his sixth Masters title. In contrast, the South American has reached a final at this level for the first time in his career
