Matteo Berrettini vs Giulio Zeppieri Match Preview
Having peaked during 2021-2022, Matteo Berrettini is battling for a return to the top spots on the men’s circuit. The Italian has a 14-14 record in the 2025 season, and hasn’t managed to pick up any titles. A former Top-10 player, Berrettini is currently ranked No. 61 in the world. Three quarterfinals in Doha, Dubai and Miami happen to be the only noteworthy outings for the 29-year-old. He has won 89% service games and 15% return games on hard courts this year. Having been knocked out in the Round of 16 at Stockholm last season, it is a great opportunity for Berrettini to gain some ranking points.
23-year-old young gun Giulio Zeppieri has played only 6 tour-level main draw matches this year. Primarily featuring on the ATP Challenger Tour, he has fallen in the qualifying tournament at several events. This week, No. 7 seed Zeppieri defeated Sachko and Zahraj in the qualifiers to enter the main draw. A good run will be vital for the World No. 160 to improve his career success rate of 27% so far. A flashy southpaw who is searching for a maiden championship run after winning four Challenger/ITF trophies, Zeppieri will look to build on his recent pre-quarterfinal showing in Hangzhou.
The head-to-head record between the Italian duo of Matteo Berrettini and Giulio Zeppieri is currently 0-0. They will face each other for the first time at the ATP-250 in Stockholm.

Matteo Berrettini vs Giulio Zeppieri ATP Stockholm Open 2025 Prediction
Berrettini has the experience to overcome Zeppieri, who struggles against players with power and precision. The left-hander will have to stay away from the strong forehand of his Italian compatriot, and needs to adopt an attacking return position to make inroads on the Berrettini serve. Zeppieri will be delighted with his own serve so far – winning over 70% points on both first and second serves throughout qualifying. Provided he can exploit Berrettini’s average return game and take the game deep, anything is possible.
Prediction: Matteo Berrettini in three sets.
