Patrick Kypson vs Francisco Comesana prediction
Texas A&M graduate Patrick Kypson is aiming to reach the second round of the Australian Open for the first time in his career after a positive 2025 campaign which saw him rack up four Challenger titles, earning him a wildcard entry to this tournament. But Kypson currently ranks outside the top 100, unlike opponent Francisco Comesana who comes into the Australian Open as the world number 68.
Comesana has had his struggles in Melbourne, but a couple of promising US Open outings over the past couple of years gives cause for optimism when taking into account the hard court surface and the environment. Like his opponent, Comesana should see this match-up as a winnable one from his perspective.
This is not an easy one to call. Comesana is expected to be the favourite but it’s unlikely to be a comprehensive victory and it’s worth backing over 3.5 total sets to be played between these two.
Patrick Kypson vs Francisco Comesana tip: Over 3.5 total sets
