Before this year, Alexander Zverev had never won a Grand Slam title. Now he has the chance to win his second of the year as the top seed takes on eighth-seeded Ben Shelton in the US Open final. Zverev has won all five of the previous matches between the two players and our prediction is he will win the title.
Zverev is playing in his third successive Grand Slam final and all on different surfaces. He won on the clay of Roland Garros and lost in the final of the grass court WImbledon Championships. Now on outdoor hard courts, the German is in his second US Open final.
His first two matches of this tournament both went to five sets. Since then, the world number two has won four matches in straight sets.
A side bet on a tie-break is an idea here. Zverev played two in his semi-final win over Karen Khachanov. There've been four in previous matches against Shelton.
To win his first Grand Slam title, Ben Shelton must beat Zverev for the first time. He's lost all five previous meetings and the last ten sets they've played.
He beat Frances Tiafoe in four sets in the last four after losing the opening set. This is his first Grand Slam final.
