THE PREDICTION

24th seed Jan-Lennard Struff proved himself a fierce competitor once again on Monday with a remarkable comeback win over home hopeful Rinky Hijikata, 10-8 in the deciding tiebreak. The 33-year-old has struggled to stay fit long enough to make full use of some of the form of his career over the past 12 months but he came perilously close to winning his first ever title at the Madrid Masters, losing in three tight sets to Carlos Alcaraz, in April before a just-as close defeat to Frances Tiafoe in Stuttgart. World number 60 Miomir Kecmanovic also came back from a set down to beat Yosuke Watanuki in four sets on Monday. The 24-year-old is a similarly hard-grafter on court with a powerful game that looks set to match-up well with Struff for another likely marathon match in Melbourne. The German leads their head-to-head 2-0 but Kecmanovic has vastly improved since their last encounter in 2019. Back both players to win a set to leave the victor up to chance.

TIP: BOTH PLAYERS TO WIN A SET
