Editorial Prediction (August 21, 2025, UTC):

As we assess the strengths and weaknesses of both players, Baez's performance in return statistics and breakpoint conversion suggests a slight upper hand. His superior win rate on heavier surfaces like clay might not influence this matchup much if the surface is not clay.

However, Zandschulp's proficiency in deciding sets and his slightly better performance under breakpoint pressure could be crucial if the match becomes closely contested. His overall higher match win percentage over the past year also adds to his potential advantage.

Despite Baez facing tougher average opponents, Zandschulp's ability to perform in crucial situations and his recent track record suggest that he might edge out this match.

Considering all factors, Zandschulp is more likely to emerge victorious in this encounter.
