 Alexander's very versus Stefano Sizi Pass. It's a blockbuster third round matchup in the Monte Carlo master for 2024 And both have been really good at the tournament so far Sizi pass came into the tournament as the number 12 in the world And it's had a pretty poor season so far with a win-loss record of 11 wins and six losses Which is far from what he was 12 months ago His best result so far was a semi-final in Los Carbos where he eventually lost to Casparud and a close straight sets That's the only semi-final that he's made this year. His best win was against Tiafo in Indian Wells who was number 18 in the world at the time So no top 10 wins yet for Steph this year His worst loss came against Shapovalov in Miami in a very easy straight sets loss and Shapo being 126 in the world. His form also has been really sketchy coming into this tournament with a couple of losses However, he did win both these matches so far this week including a really easy win over Echeverry in the previous round He's very event at the tournament as the number five in the world and has had a really decent season so far with an 18 win six loss record for the season. His best result so far is a semi-final Multiple times in multiple tournaments, but the big one being at the Australian Open where he eventually lost to Medvedev in a close five Setter. He has also made the semi-finals of Miami, Los Carbos and of course won the United Cup with Team Germany But that Australian Open semi-final is the standout. His best win was against Carlos Alcres at the Australian Open Who was number two in the world at the time beating him in four sets. His worst loss However was against Altmayer in Acapulco who was number 57 at the time He lost to him in a three-setter. His form has been pretty good having made the semi-finals and quarter-finals of his last two events Over the Sunshine Double and he's also had a win this week against Ovner in the second round match before this one. These two guys have played 14 times before with City Pass holding a 9-5 record over Zverev. However, Zverev did win their last match that was at the United Cup earlier this year But on the clay court Steph has won four of their five matches and the straight sets win here in Monte Carlo a couple of years to go as well So on the clay Steph would like his chances better. If City Pass is going to win this one He needs to bring variety to Zverev and also be aggressive and serve well He knows how to win this He's won this two out of the last three times and he's also got a pretty good draw if he can get through this matchup But he has been low on confidence so it's going to be interesting to see if he can Use those happy memories of the previous tournaments he's played here. Zverev is going to win this one He needs to grind out the rallies also serve well if he doesn't serve well He won't beat City Pass and he's also going to maybe be a little bit more aggressive than he usually is Also the backhand is going to be huge for Zverev in this one very fun matchup. I can't believe this is a third round match This should be the final. It's absolutely insane But I've got to go with Zverev in this one in a close three sets I feel like Zverev this year compared to City Pass. It's just much better And that's why I've got to pick Zverev in three but let me know down in the comments below who's making it to the quarter finals
