This will be their first meeting.
Wildcard Eyes Wimbledon Final
Arthur Fery secured his place in the Wimbledon semifinals after defeating world No. 10 Flavio Cobolli in straight sets, 6-4, 7-6, 6-0. He lost his serve only once and converted five of the nine break points he created during the match.
The result is even more impressive considering the 23-year-old had come through back-to-back five-set battles against Grigor Dimitrov and Zizou Bergs in the previous rounds.
With this run, Fery became the first wildcard to reach a Grand Slam semifinal since Goran Ivanisevic won the Wimbledon title in 2001.
The Briton earned his first Grand Slam main-draw win at the Australian Open earlier this year and had won consecutive ATP Tour main-draw matches only once before, at Queen's Club, where he reached his maiden tour-level quarterfinal.
This run has lifted him into the top 50 and as high as No. 36 in the live rankings. No British man has reached the Wimbledon final since Andy Murray in 2016, and Fery now has the chance to end that wait.

German Chases Maiden Wimbledon Final
Alexander Zverev moved into the Wimbledon semifinals after defeating Taylor Fritz in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4, 6-2. He fired 14 aces and saved all four break points he faced, snapping his seven-match losing streak against the American.
With this run, Zverev became the third German in the Open Era to reach the semifinals at all four Grand Slams, joining Boris Becker and Michael Stich.
The German recently lifted the Roland Garros title, the biggest achievement of his career. He now has another opportunity to reach a Grand Slam final after setting up a meeting with an inexperienced opponent.
Zverev has played eight grass-court semifinals in his career but has never won the title, losing at the semifinal stage on five occasions, including four of his last five.
He heads into this clash with a 4-7 career record in Grand Slam semifinals, having won three of his last four at this stage. All of his semifinal defeats at Grand Slams have come against top-five opponents.

Verdict
Given the experience gap and the occasion, Zverev should have too much quality for his inexperienced opponent. Backing Zverev to win in straight sets and Zverev to cover the -1.5 sets handicap are the selections that offer the most value.
