ALEXANDER ZVEREV VS KAREN KHACHANOV PREDICTION
Alexander Zverev comes into this clash with Karen Khachanov in solid form but he will be hoping to really kick on and push for the title in Cincinnati.
In Montreal, he had a golden opportunity to do well after so many of the seeds had been knocked out early including world number one Jannik Sinner, but Zverev lost in the quarters to Sebastian Korda.
He did pretty well in the big hard court tournaments in March in Miami and Indian Wells and he should go into the business end of this week also.
Zverev meets Khachanov leading the head-to-head between them by four wins to two. He has won the last two meetings including one this year in Miami which he dominated 6-1 6-4.
Khachanov comes off a good win over Francisco Cerundolo but this is a totally different task at hand. Zverev has the measure of him and he should comfortably progress.
