Although the German powerhouse has a convincing record against the 30-year-old, he is currently on a low in terms of form and confidence. The winner of this match will advance to the pre-quarterfinals, where they will face either Tallon Griekspoor or Corentin Moutet. Let&rsquo;s break down this contest, followed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-betmgm-sportsbetting-us-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>BetMGM<\/a> betting odds.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alexander Zverev vs Lorenzo Sonego Match Preview<\/h2><p>At the 2025 Laver Cup, Alexander Zverev confirmed that he has been dealing with some back issues since the US Open. The German World No. 3 has arguably encountered a below par season, when contextualized with his high standards. After reaching another Grand Slam final at Melbourne Park, <em>Sascha <\/em>failed to enter another summit clash until he won the BMW Open in April. Another dry patch was followed by a runner-up finish in Stuttgart and semifinals at Halle, Toronto and Cincinnati. The 28-year-old went winless at the Laver Cup, and has a 45-17 record in 2025.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Alexander Zverev joining an elite group &#128079;<br><br>he becomes the first man born in 1990 or later to record 500 tour-level wins! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/WzQGsYTyIK\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/WzQGsYTyIK<\/a><\/p>&mdash; US Open Tennis (@usopen) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/usopen\/status\/1951105030821478688?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>August 1, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>While he is one among ATP stars with an extremely high ceiling, Lorenzo Sonego has struggled to find consistency on tour. At the age of 30, he has won four singles titles during the course of his career. Yet, Sonego&rsquo;s 2025 record of 17-22 does not do justice to his immense potential. The Italian World No. 44 began the year by reaching his maiden Grand Slam quarterfinal at the Australian Open.

While the German has victories over the best players in the world over the years, he currently lacks the conviction required to win big titles. He has a knack of choosing the safer option, rather than trusting his ability and going for the kill. On the other hand, Sonego tends to up his level against the top ranked players, and plays an attacking brand of tennis. We sense that he could pounce on Zverev&rsquo;s second serves and potentially cause an upset in Beijing.<\/p><p><strong>Prediction: <\/strong>Lorenzo Sonego in three sets.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Best Shots &amp; Rallies as Lorenzo Sonego STUNS Djokovic! | Vienna 2020 Quarter-Finals\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M3O_viHm-s4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alexander Zverev vs Lorenzo Sonego ATP China Open 2025 Betting Odds<\/h2><p>Zverev starts as the favorite against underdog Sonego in the ATP-500 at Beijing.

I specialise in tennis and football writing at The Playoffs News, and I have prior experience working at EssentiallySports and Sportskeeda.

After trying my hand at multiple sports and representing my educational institutions in cricket, badminton and table tennis, I found sports media to be my calling. My message to the readers is not to be shy to express themselves - regardless of whether it is playing, talking or writing about sport.
