The round of 64 match of Paris Masters between Marton Fucsovics and Alexander Zverev will take place on October 31.
Marton Fucsovics is having a rather unimpressive season, characterized by numerous disappointing weeks and sporadic instances of good results. His lackluster performance can mostly be attributed to fitness issues. To illustrate, he was forced to withdraw from one of his last three appearances in indoor events earlier this year, specifically in Montpellier in February. The Hungarian player, who had to qualify for the tournaments, has only won one of his last ten matches against top-10 ranked opponents. This lone victory was against Taylor Fritz in Stuttgart a few months ago, which incidentally was the most recent time he competed in the main draw of an ATP event as a qualifier.
Alexander Zverev’s recent achievements have placed him on the verge of qualifying for the ATP Finals, with the Paris Masters being the crucial battleground to secure his spot. Currently ranked 7th in the Race to Turin, Zverev’s journey is particularly remarkable given his struggles earlier in the year following an injury break. During the Australian events, he grappled with defeats against opponents like Michael Mmoh and Juan Pablo Varillas, needing six attempts to string together consecutive wins in 2023. Zverev has a history of strong performances at the Masters level and the Paris Masters, where he notably defeated Rafael Nadal in 2020 on his way to a runner-up finish and reached the semifinals in 2021.
