THE PREDICTION

World number five Andrey Rublev won the 18th ATP title of his career with a confidence-boosting campaign in Hong Kong last week, bringing a four-match winning streak into the Australian Open. The 26-year-old completed his set of Grand Slam quarter-finals last summer with some sumptuous tennis at Wimbledon, taking the first set from eventual champion Novak Djokovic before defeat in four, and a first semi-final should be his main target in 2024. World number 78 Thiago Seyboth Wild has failed to win a tour-level match since early August, on his favoured clay at the Kitzbuhel Open, but the Brazilian proved himself a potential up-and-comer with a stunning upset over Daniil Medvedev at Roland-Garros earlier that summer. The 23-year-old is a talented former junior star who could enjoy a strong clay swing next month but this looks an open-and-shut straight-sets opener for in-form Rublev.

TIP: ANDREY RUBLEV TO WIN 3-0
