THE PREDICTION
Two veterans of the tour will face-off in the first round of the Australian Open as 35-year-old Pablo Cuevas meets 26-year-old Andreas Seppi on Tuesday. The pair have played twice before, with a win each as far back as 2014 and 2015 so six years on there will be a different feel to this match. Uruguay’s Cuevas beat Pablo Andujar at the Great Ocean Road Open last week before coming unstuck against Hubert Hurkacz but he will fancy his chances against world number 107 Seppi who has yet to win a match in 2021. Both players to claim a set in what could be a rather long and drawn out affair seems a sensible enough place to stop with this match, with a result difficult to call. At push, Cuevas seems the more in form.
