Tennis Predictions
It's a 100% Spanish match that awaits us during this first round of the Adelaide tournament in Australia, between Roberto Bautista-Agut and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina. Roberto Bautista-Agut ended his season with 2 defeats in a row despite a surprise victory against world number 6, Casper Ruud, during the first round of the Basel tournament. A ultimately logical end to the season for the man who had put his last strength of the season into the Belgian tournament in Antwerp since he had 5 consecutive victories there by winning the tournament title against Jiri Lehecka.
For his part, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina has already started his season at the Hong Kong tournament but he ultimately did not manage to get past the first round since he was stopped by his compatriot Jaume Munar, 62nd in the world, in a match in 3 sets. Author of a mixed 2024 season, since the Spaniard lost 35 places in the ATP rankings, he was however a quarter-finalist in Atlanta and beat world number 5, Daniil Medvedev during the round of 16 of the Montreal tournament during the 'summer. A course which should allow him to hope to achieve a result in this match against an opponent he knows well.
