Command Analysis

Alexander Zverev

It looks like Zverev completely recovered after the recent failure in Munich, and he approached the final of the tournament in the Spanish capital without losing a single set. And that is impressive if you think about what opponent the German player had on his way to the final match.
Zverev beat Rafael Nadal (6-4, 6-4) and Dominic Thiem (6-3, 6-4). Alexander's results vividly demonstrate that he is in great form.

Matteo Berrettini

Berrettini hasn't lost for eight matches. Before the start of the Madrid Open, he won the tournament in Belgrade, and now he is ready to take on Zverev in the Madrid final.
The only difficulty Matteo had during this tournament was in the quarter-final match against Cristian Garin. The Italian player lost a set to Garin (5-7, 6-3, 6-0). All of the other matches Berrettini won in straight sets: he beat Fabio Fognini (6-3, 6-4), Federico Delbonis (7-6, 6-4), and Casper Ruud (6-4, 6-4).
