Prediction: Zhizhen Zhang will defeat Hubert Hurkacz in the match at the Shanghai tournament. There are several reasons for this prediction. Firstly, Zhang is in great form and displaying impressive play at his home tournament. He became the first Chinese player to reach the round of 16 in Shanghai, and is clearly ready for the challenge. Secondly, Hurkacz, although winning two matches in Shanghai, has not shown his best tennis and has been inconsistent. Additionally, in their head-to-head meetings, Zhang has lost to Hurkacz, but the matches have been close, and this time Zhang has a chance for revenge. Lastly, the support of the local crowd will be an additional incentive for Zhang, who will strive to continue his winning streak and take revenge for their previous encounter. All these factors make the prediction of Zhizhen Zhang's victory more likely.
