Roberto Bautista Agut vs Christopher O’Connell prediction
Roberto Bautista Agut is still searching for his first win of 2026 after early losses in his first two events of the year. He lost to Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in Auckland and despite taking the first set against Juncheng Shang at the Australian Open, fell away poorly to lose in four sets at the Australian Open. Bautista Agut reached the final here in 2021 but failed to win against David Goffin.
He faces Christopher O’Connell. The Australian has lost his last four matches and is also without a main draw victory in 2026. He was defeated by Nishesh Basavareddy in five sets in the first-round of the Australian Open, before losing to Kyrian Jacquet on the Challenger Tour in Manama.
The head-to-head is locked at 1-1 between the pair. Bautista Agut is the favourite, but he has not made a strong start to the campaign and will need to improve if he is to get the better of O’Connell.
