LiontipsZverev — Lajovic. Forecast and bets for the ATP Buenos Aires match
Command Analysis
Current form
Zverev has not played a single official match since the Australian Open. Let's remind that at the Australian major Alexander managed to reach the finals - in the decisive match he lost to Yannick Sinner.
Professional qualities
Zverev's two—handed backhand is one of the most stable in the men's tour. He confidently withstands long firefights from left to left. Unfortunately, the German's forehand is not stable. However, his ability to put the ball well into play is much more important. Thanks to his excellent serve, Alexander returned to the second line of the world ranking, almost not giving his opponents a chance to play on their own games.
Current indicators in the tour
Zverev is the second racket of the world. Last season, Alexander won two titles at his own expense - he won the clay Masters in Rome and won the Masters in Paris, which was held on indoor hard court. In total, the German has 25 trophies in his career, 23 of which are in the ATP category.
Interesting facts for betting
Zverev has eight wins in the new season with only one loss.
Current form
Lajovic beat Roberto Carballes-Baena (7-6, 7-5) in the first round of the competition in Buenos Aires. Dusan made seven aces against the Spaniard, made five break points and lost four games on his serve.
Professional qualities
Lajovic can be described as a technical player. His main strength is his one—handed backhand, which allows him to easily change the direction of his punches during the draws. Dusan has a great sense of the court and actively uses twisted punches. He's good at moving around the court and playing on the back line.
Current indicators in the tour
Lajovic is in the top 100 of the world ranking. He is currently ranked 81st. The 34-year-old Serb has won 14 trophies in his career, two of which are in the ATP category. He won his last title in 2023 on the clay courts of Banja Luka.
Interesting facts for betting
Lajovic has reached the quarterfinal stage in Buenos Aires for the last two seasons.
