THE PREDICTION
World number 17 Frances Tiafoe first burst onto the scene here in Melbourne with a remarkable run to the quarter-finals in 2019 and he set a new personal record at the US Open in 2022, taking eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz to five sets before an excruciating defeat. The 25-year-old has, arguably, yet to recover from that disappointment in front of adoring home fans in new York but despite a choppy 2023 overall he did add two ATP titles, on clay in Houston and grass in Stuttgart, to complete the surfaces set alongside his Delray Beach title in 2018. World number 39 Borna Coric is in a similar state of flux after missing the last third of the season following injury at the US Open.
The 27-year-old beat Tallon Griekspoor in straight sets at the United Cup last week but comfortably lost to Casper Ruud to put his working level somewhere inside the top 30, although there is very little form to go on for either player here. Take both to win at least a set to leave this result totally up to chance.
TIP: BOTH PLAYERS TO WIN A SET
