Grigor Dimitrov vs Alex Michelsen prediction
Grigor Dimitrov was handed a tough draw at the Australian Open as he fell to a first-round exit. He was defeated by Tomas Machac in straight sets, with the Czech having just won an event in Adelaide a few days earlier. Dimitrov will be hoping to get a consistent run of matches going after making his full return at the start of the year, following a pectoral injury that kept him out of action for a number of months.
Alex Michelsen is his opponent. The American was also a casualty in round one at the first slam of the year, losing in five sets to Karen Khachanov in an epic. There was encouragement for Michelsen at the start of last month, as he won three matches in a row, including impressive straight sets wins over Sebastian Korda and Learner Tien, to advance to the semi-finals in Brisbane.
Dimitrov is still making his way back and Michelsen can be a threat in these conditions. The American will give himself a strong chance if he serves well.
