Game 2 of the RO16 in the ATP 250 at Hangzhou brings good tidings as the books might've mispriced the Dalibor Svrcina vs Zhizhen Zhang match. See why and our best pick in this match prediction below.

Zhang’s the favourite to win on home ground, but Svrcina’s form might just be too hot to handle. Looking at form, Zhang has lost four of his last five singles and recorded 12 defeats in his last 16. That's in sharp contrast to Svrcina, who has won seven of his last nine singles.

On hardcourt, the difference is even more notable, with Zhang losing seven of his last eight games. He did manage to beat Yunchaokete Bu as the underdog in the previous round, but he still conceded a set. Meanwhile, Svrcina has won nine of his last 13 on this surface and capped it off with a brilliant RO32 underdog victory in straight sets over 57th-ranked Matteo Berrettini.

Moreover, Svrcina, at 99th place, is far higher in the official ATP rankings compared to Zhang at 192nd. While Zhang is a formidable player with home fans cheering him on, his stats are not looking good next to Svrcina.
