ZHIZHEN ZHANG VS ROBERTO CARBALLES BAENA PREDICTION
Sixth seed Zhizhen Zhang has looked impressive so far this week as he has beaten Denis Yevseyev and Mattia Bellucci to get to the quarters. His win over Bellucci was particularly impressive as he lost just three games and hardly gave his opponent a sniff.
He now meets Spanish veteran Roberto Carballes Baena who has done well in overcoming Corentin Moutet and Mitchell Krueger. This is a different proposition however and he will know Zhang will be super motivated in front of the home support.
Zhang’s win over Bellucci was impressive and he continues generating as many break points as he has so far – 24 in two matches – and he maintains the level of play he has achieved so far, he simply has to be favoured to progress to the semis.
