THE PREDICTION
19-year-old Diana Schnaider will make her Grand Slam debut here in Melbourne after blasting through qualifying in impressive fashion. The world number 105 enjoyed plenty of success son the ITF circuit last season and ended 2022 with a Challenger title in Uruguay to suggest she could be in for a transformative season in 2023. World number 269 Kristina Kucova made the first round of the Australian Open on a protected ranking after an injury saw her miss the second-half of last season, with this match her first at tour-level since the second round of Wimbledon last summer. Given Schnaider’s impressive qualifying run, and her lack of baggage on a Grand Slam debut, back the teenager to earn at least a set here as the likelier of two capable victors.
