Alexander Zverev vs Tallon Griekspoor Preview: Head-to-Head and Prediction for Vienna Open 2025
Second-seeded Alexander Zverev will look to keep his bid for a second title in 2025 alive when he takes on Tallon Griekspoor in the quarterfinals of the 2025 Vienna Open. Zverev’s season has been mixed as the German player has had 21 losses this season, so far, and has lost to several low-ranked players even after beginning his season with a Grand Slam runner-up finish in Melbourne. At Vienna, he began with a 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (5) win over British qualifier Jacob Fearnley in the first round, followed by a 6-4, 6-4 win over Italian qualifier Matteo Arnaldi in the second round.
Griekspoor’s 2025 season has seen the Dutchman reach two finals, where he won the title in Mallorca and then had a runner-up finish in Marrakesh. However, in as many as 14 events, he has not made it past the second round this year. At Vienna, he began with a 6-3, 5-7, 6-4 win over fifth-seeded Karen Khachanov in the first round, after which he won 7-6 (4), 7-6 (2) against Brandon Nakashima in the second round.
