Davis Cup Predictions: Netherlands vs Belgium Best Bets

1st Matchup: Tallon Griekspoor vs Zizou Bergs

Griekspoor and Bergs are the top-ranked players for their respective countries, with this match being played indoors on a hard court. Griekspoor reached the third round of the US Open before losing to Dimitrov in straight sets. While he’s had solid results this season, his recent performances have been inconsistent. On the other hand, Bergs made it to the second round in New York, where he lost in four sets to Cobolli. His strongest performances this year have been at the Challenger level, which helped him secure a top-100 ranking.

Given Griekspoor’s experience and his comfort on fast indoor courts, we believe he will secure the first win for the Netherlands. Bergs is still gaining experience at this level and may struggle to match Griekspoor’s level.

2nd Matchup: Botic Van de Zandschulp vs Raphael Collignon

Van de Zandschulp is the second-highest ranked Dutch player and recently reached the third round of the US Open, defeating Shapovalov and Alcaraz before losing to Draper. Collignon, meanwhile, is hovering around the top 200 and is set to play the biggest match of his career. Most of his success has come on clay and at the ITF/Challenger level.

With Van de Zandschulp’s experience and stronger track record on hard courts, we expect him to dominate this match and secure another win for the Netherlands.

3rd Matchup: Haase/Koolhof vs Gille/Vliegen

For doubles, we anticipate Robin Haase and Wesley Koolhof will pair up for the Netherlands against Belgium’s experienced duo of Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen. While Haase has played with various partners this season, Koolhof and his partner Mektic reached the quarterfinals of the US Open. Gille and Vliegen have a long-standing partnership and have had solid results together, though they were eliminated in the second round at the US Open.

The Belgian pair’s long-term partnership gives them an advantage in this match, and we expect them to win, earning Belgium their first victory.

Best Bet:

We predict the Netherlands will win both singles matches, while Belgium will claim victory in the doubles match.
