Match summary
Alexander Zverev, the world number 3, will face Flavio Cobolli, ranked 16th, in the semifinals of the BMW Open by Bitpanda on clay. The match takes place on April 18, 2026, on the outdoor clay courts in Munich. Zverev and Cobolli have met twice before, with Zverev winning both encounters, though this semifinal represents a significant stage for their rivalry.
Zverev's dominance in their head-to-head record reflects broader competitive trends between the two players. The German has looked particularly strong against shared opponents this season, winning consistently where Cobolli has struggled. Their prior meetings suggest Zverev has found answers to Cobolli's game.
Zverev has been in excellent form recently, winning 8 of his last 10 matches and maintaining a three-match winning streak heading into this semifinal. He's also been extremely busy, playing seven matches in the last two weeks. Cobolli enters the match on a three-match winning streak of his own, though his form over a longer sample has been less consistent, with a 50% record across his last ten.
Zverev relies heavily on an aggressive serving game and baseline power, giving him natural advantages on clay. Cobolli plays a more reactive, counterattacking style that can trouble aggressive players but requires consistent opportunities. On clay specifically, Zverev holds a 75% record compared to Cobolli's 65%, reflecting their relative comfort on the surface.
