Andrey Rublev vs Wu Yibing prediction
Andrey Rublev kicks off 2026 against home hope Yibing Wu.
The Russian will be bidding to make a solid start to his latest campaign after drifting outside of the top ten last year.
Wu could be tricky with the wildcard eager to impress in his homeland and already showed he can be a threat with a surprise 6-4 6-2 success against Fabian Marozsan.
Rublev won their only previous meeting in a deciding set on the grass of Halle in 2023 and will want to avoid another slow start having fallen at the first hurdle here last year.
It may not be routine and it will be interesting to see how focused the Russian is in terms of having serious designs on returning to his best this season.
