Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-7.5) for Zverev – 1.63.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 31.5 – 1.65.
Ofner is doing quite well on the clay part of the season, but all the victories Ofner has won on the clay this year, have been on Challengers. At major tournaments, Sebastian usually does not stay long, so expect an early exit at Roland Garros as well.
The only head-to-head encounter between the two players was a low-scoring affair. This match is likely to follow a similar pattern. Zverev is significantly superior to Ofner in skill, so we expect Alexander to easily beat the Austrian in the upcoming match in three sets.

Zverev is having a good season overall. True, no trophies so far, but Alexander has already managed to play in two finals this year.
At the Indoors in Montpellier, Zverev lost in two sets to Alexander Bublik (4-6, 3-6). At the Madrid Masters, he fell to Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (3-6, 1-6). At Roland Garros last year, Zverev reached the semi-finals, losing to Stefanos Tsitsipas (3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 3-6).
He has played 14 games on the clay this season and has 10 wins.

Ofner made it through qualification to the main draw at Roland Garros. Sebastian had no trouble against Jay Clarke (6-4, 6-4) or Aleksandar Vukic (6-2, 6-4) at the start of qualifying.
In the final qualifying, the Austrian had to work hard to defeat Alessandro Giannessi (6-4, 1-6, 6-2) in three sets.
Ofner has played 14 games on the clay this season and has 10 wins.
Safe Bets
I don’t think Ofner will win more than 4 games in any set. This means that Zverev will win the match by winning 18 games. We offer to bet on “Zverev Total Games – Under 19” with the odds of 1.80.
