The statistics between Zarate and Carballo show a close contest, with neither player showing dominant superiority in overall form or specific game situations. Carballo has demonstrated a slight advantage in return games and under pressure situations, but Zarate excels on clay, which can play a significant role if the match is held on that surface.

While Carballo's recent opponent levels may have been stronger, Zarate has more frequently contended with challenging settings, possibly preparing him better for high-pressure scenarios

Given these factors, the prediction favors Carballo—but only marginally—as his return game proficiency and minor edge in handling pressure could prove deciding factors in what seems to be an evenly matched contest.

Carballo is the likely contender to edge ahead in this upcoming match, assuming his strengths are harnessed effectively.
