Alexander Zverev against Jacob Fearnley: predictions, where to watch

Alexander Zverev faces Brit Jacob Fearnley, 24, this evening at the Louis Armstrong stadium in the second round of the US 2025.

Zverev, the seeded n ° 3, is still continuing its first title of the Grand Chelem – the missing piece separating it from the game elite.

The questions persist on its physical and mental sustainability, even if its results show consistency. He opened with a victory of 6–2, 7-6 (4), 6–4 against Alejandro Tabilo, improving his field record this year at 20–6.

His season includes a finalist at Australian Open, a title of terrain clay in Munich, quarter-final in Rome and Paris, and consecutive appearances in the semi-finals in Cincinnati and Toronto.

On paper, he looks ready to close the swing of hard summer lands with a breakthrough, but his victories have often made an air of fragility.

Fearnley enters as a British Joker making his debut in the United States. He upset the veteran Roberto Bautista agut in the first round, presenting the shooting and the composure which earned him several appearances in the third and the fourth round at Majors this season.

However, his recent momentum seems to have slowed down, and he will have to increase his level considerably to disturb Zverev under the lights this evening.

Zverev-Fearnley Tête-à-tête

Zverev holds a 2-0 lead on Fearnley head-to-head, having defeated him earlier this year at Australian Open and Miami. These hard ground victories came without dropping a set.

Predictions

Zverev in right sets. Fearnley has the tools to make gatherings interesting, but the experience, service and consistency of the Zverev baseline should see it comfortably.
