Alexander Zverev vs. Stan Wawrinka – Prediction – ATP Paris (France) 6.11.2020

H2H: Alexander Zverev v Stan Wawrinka – comparison.

As he just showed against Andrey Rublev on Thursday, Stan Wawrinka is still very much capable of troubling any player on tour, and a lot depends on his fitness and performance levels on the day. Alexander Zverev, who leads the H2H series 3-0, is favored to win this match up once again, but a place in the semifinal of Paris Masters is not beyond the Swiss’ reach.

Alexander Zverev defeated Adrian Mannarino for the third time in as many meetings since the restart to advance into the quarterfinal of Paris Masters. In a three-set encounter that concluded in just over three hours, the German played out two tiebreakers and exchanged seven breaks of serve before controlling the deciding set, 7-6 6-7 6-4. The 23-year-old previously got the better of Adrian Mannarino in the third round of the US Open and quarterfinal of ATP Cologne, and he went onto reach the finals in both of those tournaments — champion in Cologne and runner-up in the US Open.

Despite the personal issues surrounding him at the moment, the top-ranked German looks determined as he continues his winning streak on the main tour. Alexander Zverev enters Paris Masters after winning back-to-back titles in ATP Cologne and is currently on a ten-match winning streak. After being accused of domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend a few days ago, Alexander Zverev released a statement on his Instagram account but refused to make any further comments on the topic during his press conferences in Paris Masters this week. Alexander Zverev could win only three games during his only previous quarterfinal match in Paris Masters — 1-6 2-6 against Karen Khachanov in 2018 — and would be hoping to put up a better show this time around.

Stan Wawrinka produced one of his best performances of the season to end the red-hot Andrey Rublev’s 11-match unbeaten run on the main tour. The Swiss made a terrible start to the match and lost the first set 1-6 but did not face a breakpoint on his serve in the following two sets, 1-6 6-4 6-3. Former world #3 Stan Wawrinka will now face yet another top-10 player who is also on a fine winning run. The win against Andrey Rublev was Stan Wawrinka’s second top-10 win of the season, and the last time he scored consecutive top-10 wins was against Marin Cilic and Andy Murray in the quarterfinal and semifinal of the French Open 2017, respectively. Stan Wawrinka heads into this clash with a 1-1 record in the quarterfinal of Paris Masters, having defeated Rafael Nadal in 2015 and lost to Novak Djokovic in 2013.
