Rafael Nadal vs Alexander Zverev Prediction and Betting Tips (03.06.2022)

Command Analysis

Rafael Nadal

Spain

Despite unsuccessful performance on the eve of the French Open and a rib fracture he suffered in March, Rafael Nadal came to Paris as one of the main favorites to win the Major. The King of Clay is not the same he was a few years ago, but he remains one of thebest players in the tour, especially on clay.

Earlier in this tournament, Nadal celebrated success over Felix Auger-Aliassime (3-6, 6 -3, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3), Botick Van de Zandschulp (6-3, 6-2, 6-4), Corentin Moutet (6-3, 6-1, 6-4) and Jordan Thompson (6-2, 6-2, 6-2). He ousted Novak Djokovic to reach the semifinals (6-2, 4-6, 6-2, 7-6).

Alexander Zverev

Germany

Alexander Zverev hasn't had a particularly good season, but he has done well in the current tournament. The German tennis played closed Sebastian Offner (6-2, 6-4, 6-4), Brandon Nakashima (7-6, 6-3, 7-6), and Bernabe Zapata Miralles (7-6, 7-5, 6-3) in straight sets.

His most difficult match was against Sebastian Baez (2-6, 4-6, 6-1, 6-2, 7-5) in the second round. In the last eight, Zverev defeated Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (6-4, 6-4, 4-6, 7-6), one of the favorites to win the Major.
