Bergs and Baez are on the Day 4 Schedule at European Open 2024 on Thursday 17 October 2024. Lets breakdown the career, past stats and recent form of these players and predict who will get the victory.

Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?

Zizou Bergs, a 25-year-old Belgian player currently ranked 69th in the world, will be facing off against Sebastian Baez from Argentina, who is ranked 27th in the world. This will be their first meeting.

Bergs has had a successful career so far, breaking into the top 200 in July 2021 and the top 100 in June 2024. He achieved his career-high ranking of 69th in October 2024, shortly after his biggest career win against No. 24 Tabilo at the Roland Garros, where he reached the third round as a qualifier. Bergs also earned his first ATP Tour win at the 2020 Antwerp, defeating Ramos-Vinolas as a 528th-ranked wild card. He went on to reach his first ATP Tour quarterfinal at the 2023 Gstaad as a qualifier. Additionally, Bergs has won several Challenger titles and has qualified for Grand Slam events.

However, Bergs has struggled against top-ranked players, with a 1-9 record against the top 30. His lone win came against No. 24 Tabilo at the Roland Garros this year. He hopes to become the third Belgian player to make the Antwerp quarterfinals, following in the footsteps of Goffin and his coach Bemelmans.

On the other hand, Sebastian Baez is a 23-year-old player from Argentina ranked 27th in the world. He achieved his career-high ranking of 18th in June 2024 after winning consecutive ATP Tour titles in Rio de Janeiro and Santiago. In the 2023 season, Baez had a career-best 12-match winning streak, which included winning titles in Kitzbuhel and Winston-Salem. He also reached the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time at the US Open.

Baez won his first ATP Tour title at the 2022 Estoril and his second title on home soil at the 2023 Cordoba. He had a breakthrough year in 2021, breaking into the top 300, 200, and 100, and winning several Challenger titles. He was also the world No. 1 junior in March 2018 and had success in the Roland Garros boys’ singles final and Youth Olympics doubles event in his hometown of Buenos Aires.

Baez is seeking his 20th ATP Tour quarterfinal appearance and his second on hard courts. He aims to achieve his personal-best 32nd win in a season and has had success on indoor hard courts in the past.

In the PIF ATP live race to Turin, the current top-ranking players are Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev, Daniil Medvedev, Taylor Fritz, and Novak Djokovic. Several players, including Casper Ruud, Andrey Rublev, Alex de Minaur, Grigor Dimitrov, Tommy Paul, and Stefanos Tsitsipas, have earned points in recent tournaments. The top 16 players in the race will qualify for the 2024 Nitto ATP Finals in Turin.
