Our Alejandro Tabilo vs Zhizhen Zhang Prediction

Listen, I know what you might be thinking, neither player has dropped a set in Rome yet, so there's hardly a recent pattern of three-set matches. That's true, but something has to give sooner or later and as the highly in-form pair clash here, they could be locked in something of a stalemate. Such matches often the go the distance. It's probably fair to say that each player is due a three-set match at this tournament. Both are playing very, very good clay court tennis, so it's not easy to envisage either giving up easy breaks, while in their only previous meeting, although Zhang won in straight sets, both sets were decided via a tie break and there was very little between the pair. With this in mind, betting on this one to go the distance appeals at slightly chunky-looking odds of 2.45. Our Prediction: Over 2.5 Sets.
