Zverev – Popyrin betting tip Olympia 31.07.2024

Olympic tennis tournament in Paris, round of 16, Wednesday, 31.07.2024, 16:30

Alexander Zverev and tennis betting? That was a great combination for me this month. I gave you a betting tip for eight matches, and the odds came through six times. And my colleague Isabella came up with two more odds winners for you at the start of the Olympics.

That makes a success rate of 80 percent of successful tennis bets on Zverev matches, almost the odds that Zverev gets on his first serve. Still his biggest weapon in his game. No one in the top elite serves as reliably as the Hamburg native.

He narrowly missed out on defending his title in the Hanseatic city. At the Olympic Games, he still has every chance of hanging the gold medal around his neck again. I expect an unchallenged 2:0 victory against Alexei Popyrin. Using Winamax’s tennis betting configurator, I’m betting that there won’t be a tiebreak

I have to admit, after the clear defeat in the mixed doubles with Laura Siegemund, I wasn’t sure whether Zverev would win in the singles against the same Thomas Machac who had caused him the doubles defeat the day before.

There was a tense atmosphere on the court for the German pair, who led Germany to the title in the United Cup in January and even went into the Olympic Games as the top seeded duo. However, Zverev/Siegemund were unable to build on their performance in Brisbane.

At the same time, they faced Machac and Katerina Siniakova, a very well-rehearsed doubles team. However, Zverev did not let the loss against the Czech get him down and continued where he left off in the singles with a resounding two-set victory

The only time things got tingly was in the second set, when the German temporarily let his break lead slip. However, the man who had already broken more than 100 times on the spot at the French Open came back and avoided the tiebreak 7-5.

His record after victories over Machac and Jaume Munar (6-2, 6-2): 17 break chances, eight service games taken. At the same time, he conceded just two service games against Machac. Munar was unable to capitalize on his only break opportunity.

The odds on the German number are once again clear favorites. Odds of around 1.10 are waiting for a Zverev win. Popyrin (7.00) needs a bigger tennis miracle. Even for the 2:0, sports betting fans can only get odds just under the 1.50 mark.

Lucrative, on the other hand, is the self-made Winamax combination of a smooth victory for the Tokyo champion with less than 0.5 tiebreaks. For this, a 1.90 beckons at the betting provider, which also offers one of the best bonus packages with its 100 euro free bet credit for new customers.

Also practical in the context of the Olympic Games. The “Bet on the Germans at the Olympics!” section can be found in the category column. All betting events with German sports stars can be found there. The matching odds are free of betting taxes.

Zverev lost out to Arthur Fils in the Hamburg final. Before that, his body slowed him down against Taylor Fritz at Wimbledon. At the French Open, he lost to Carlos Alcaraz in the final after five thrilling rounds. Zverev has won 22 of his 27 matches on clay

He has already beaten Popyrin twice, but the duels were a few years ago. In 2018 and 2019, Zverev was dominant on the hard courts of Basel and Acapulco. And I see an even bigger difference in quality on clay.

Popyrin has just four wins to his name. His biggest success came against Andrey Rublev in Monaco, all his other victories were not eye-catching results, apart from the 6-3, 7-6 win against Nicolas Jarry at the start of Olmypia, but the Chilean was unable to carry his good form from Rome into the next tournaments.

In round two, Popyrin prevailed against Stan Wawrinka, who can no longer offer a top level. Before Paris, Popyrin lost in the first round of Hamburg against Ugo Blanchet and Jakub Mensik in Umag

My Zverev Popyrin tip

Like Zverev, Popyrin has a dangerous first serve. He will definitely need it against the German to get a few game wins on the board. The reigning Olympic champion is better in terms of movement, defense and returns.

He has taken a set off Djokovic on Grand Slam stages and defeated Rublev at the Masters in Monaco. He has not won any tournaments and his win rate on the red clay is disastrous. Overall, the Australian’s game is very error-prone.

Zverev clearly won the first two duels. I also expect Zverev to win match number three 2:0, especially as clay is the French Open finalist’s absolute favorite surface.
