ATP Queen’s Club Day 4 Predictions: Key Matches Include Tommy Paul vs Botic van de Zandschulp

The early stages of the ATP Queen’s Club tournament have provided interesting results, with all matches decided in straight sets. Day 4 promises to be more competitive, featuring several players who feel they have a point to prove. Among the standout matches, Tommy Paul takes on Botic van de Zandschulp, while Ugo Humbert faces Hamad Medjedovic.

In the clash between Humbert and Medjedovic, the head-to-head record favours Humbert at 1-0. Although Humbert has not been at his best recently, his grass-court prowess is expected to help him overcome a player known for his heavy serve and forehand. The match is predicted to go to three sets, with Humbert ultimately prevailing.

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, who leads Corentin Moutet 4-0 in their head-to-head, is predicted to win in three sets. However, this is their first meeting on grass, a surface where Moutet could be more competitive. Both players have struggled recently, but Davidovich Fokina's historical advantage gives him the edge.

Rinky Hijikata, having won three straight matches through qualifying, is well acclimatised to the grass. Yet Jiri Lehecka, despite a dip in form, is expected to overpower the Australian with his baseline power. The prediction is for Lehecka to win in straight sets.

The marquee match sees Tommy Paul, a player suited to all surfaces, face Botic van de Zandschulp, who leads their head-to-head 2-0. Van de Zandschulp broke a four-match losing streak in his first Queen's Club match, but Paul's consistent level makes him the favourite to get his first win in this matchup. The prediction is for Paul in three sets.
