Zverev, a native of Hamburg, won the Munich title in 2017 and 2018 but fell in the quarter-finals in his past two appearances. He is joined in the top half of the draw by seeded players Reilly Opelka, Cristian Garin and Daniel Evans — the Briton a potential quarter-final opponent.

Second seed Casper Ruud could face Marrakech finalist Alex Molcan in the second round, while Nikoloz Basilashvili and Miomir Kecmanovic could meet in the quarter-finals if the seeds hold.

The pick of the opening-round matches may be eighth seed Botic van de Zandschulp’s meeting with #NextGenATP American Brandon Nakashima, with the pair set to open their ATP Head2Head series.
