Christopher Eubanks vs Reilly Opelka Prediction

Reilly Opelka has already tasted victory over Christopher Eubanks once in 2025 and needs to repeat that feat here in the first step to what he hopes will be a tournament that helps him find form in singles competition. Opelka has really struggled to build momentum in recent weeks and is a much better player than results have suggested.

Eubanks has fared even worse, losing his last five matches in competitive competition, including against Opelka at the Delray Beach Open. He could well end up struggling significantly with Opelka’s serve if it is at a sustained level of accuracy. These two have met three times previously and Opelka has won each one in straight sets.

It would be a surprise if we didn’t see Opelka dominate this first round showdown. He’s the better all-round player, especially on the hard court and any outcome other than victory for him would be unexpected.
