Stan Wawrinka vs Benjamin Hassan prediction

Stan Wawrinka’s farewell tour brings him to Dubai where he will hope to chalk up another main draw win.

The 2016 champions has already surpassed his tally of tour-level victories for 2025 and will be quietly confident against Lebanon’s Benjamin Hassan.

The 31-year-old has very little main draw experience at the highest level and will relish the chance to lock horns with a three-time Grand Slam champion. 

It’s a battle of wildcards but the Swiss will have the spotlight as the big name and should have more quality to mark a first appearance in Dubai since 2017 with a win that extends this latest swansong.
