Carballés faces a very complex debut on the London grass
Tenerife’s Carballés Baena was not lucky with the draw. In this first step, he faces the world number 4 and one of the main candidates to reach the decisive rounds. Although it is always better to face these surnames in the first week, his chances against a player like Zverev are really slim. Being up to the match would be a victory in itself.
Roberto Carballés Forecast: data and current form
These were his first matches on grass this season, a surface on which he has only won 4 ATP matches in his entire career (12 defeats). That partly explains his few chances in these Carballés vs Zverev Wimbledon 2024 bets.
It is the sixth time that the Tenerife player is present in the main draw at Wimbledon. The only time he was able to overcome his first obstacle was in the last edition, when he fell in the Second Round against Danish Holger Rune (in straight sets).
The current world number 4 starts his participation at The Cathedral with the aim of reaching the second week of this tournament for the third time. His best results were in 2017 and 2021, when he reached the Fourth Round.
Alexander Zverev Forecast: data and current form
In his first tournament on grass this season, «Sascha» fell in the semifinals of Halle against Polish Hubert Hurkacz (6-7 and 4-6). He has not yet won any titles with grass under his feet.
To understand the wide favoritism of the German in this Carballés vs Zverev forecast, it is enough to give a brief summary of his season.
Although his only trophy was lifted on the clay of the Masters 1000 in Rome (Vs Nicolás Jarry), he was a protagonist in almost all the tournaments in which he participated. A few weeks ago, he once again came close to his first Grand Slam at Roland Garros (lost to Carlos Alcaraz). He also reached 4 other semifinals, including the Australian Open.
