Alexander Zverev emerges as a valuable pick at +105 to win in straight sets against Novak Djokovic, who looked like a shell of his former self in the previous two matches.
Current Form:
Novak Djokovic entered the quarterfinals of the 2026 China Open after clawing back from a set down to defeat Bu Yunchaokete 4-7, 7-6, 6-2. Despite experiencing fitness issues in the first two matches, Djokovic barged into the final eight by banking on his experience, mental strength, and championship pedigree.
Alexander Zverev breezed through to the quarterfinals after posting consecutive straight-set victories. The two-time Grand Slam winner topped Cameron Norrie 7-6, 6-4 in the opening round and then demolished Juncheng Shang 6-0, 6-3 in the round of 16.
The Matchup: Djokovic holds a 9-5 head-to-head advantage against Alexander Zverev. However, Zverev will march into their 15th showdown brimming with confidence, having put together his best campaign on the ATP Tour this year.

Our Alexander Zverev vs Novak Djokovic Prediction
The Difference Maker: At this point in their respective careers, Zverev has reached the climax of his career with two Grand Slam titles in 2026, while Djokovic has dropped out of the top 10 for the first time since 2018.
Zverev has won 12 of his last 13 matches, including a 7-match winning streak to capture the title in Flushing Meadows. On the other hand, Djokovic has gone 2-3 in his last 5 matches.
What to Expect: Zverev takes the win in straight sets. Playing near his top level, Zverev has no reason to drop a set against a physically battered Djokovic. The German has all the tools and momentum right now to impose his dominance on the player who gave him plenty of headaches and heartaches in the past.
Fearless Forecast: Alexander Zverev wins 6-, 6-3
