Quentin Halys vs Alejandro Tabilo prediction
Quentin Halys struggled for much of 2025 with disappointing results, but has made a stronger start this year with six wins from his first eight matches. He qualified for both tournaments in Brisbane and Adelaide and reached the second-round. The Frenchman lost to Tomas Machac in the latter event, with Machac going on to win the tournament.
He faces Alejandro Tabilo. Tabilo lost in round one of the Hong Kong Open to Michael Mmoh in straight sets, while he picked up his first main draw win of the campaign against Camilo Ugo Carabelli in Auckland. However, he would go no further after a three set loss to Luciano Darderi, despite a strong start. Tabilo won the Chengdu Open as a qualifier towards the end of 2025, beating top seed Lorenzo Musetti in the final.
Halys’ game seems to be in a better state, but Tabilo’s lefty aggression can make him a difficult player to beat over five sets.
Quentin Halys vs Alejandro Tabilo tip: Over 3.5 sets
