Editorial Prediction (September 3, 2025, UTC):

As we look ahead to this match, the second serve statistics could play a critical role. Zou shows a stronger ability to win points on their second serve, which is often a determining factor in match outcomes.

However, Chen compensates for this with better return metrics on opponents' second serves. Even though the first serve return stats are close, this could give Chen an edge in prolonged rallies.

Under pressure, both players show similar breakpoint resilience, although Zou has a slight advantage here. The overall win rate over the last year favors Chen, who also faces stronger competition on average.

A significant factor is their performance under extreme pressure. With deciding sets, Chen's superior record strongly hints at a mental fortitude that could be decisive.

Considering all available data, Chen appears to have a slight edge, positioning them as the likely victor in this upcoming match.
