THE PREDICTION
World number 24 Alex de Minaur defeated Rafael Nadal from a set down at the United Cup two weeks ago but lost to Great Britain’s Cam Norrie in the first tie as Australia failed to make it out of their group. 23-year-old De Minaur often flies under the radar at top events but he came perilously close to making the quarter-finals at Wimbledon last summer before a capitulation handed the win to Cristian Garin in five sets. The Aussie has made the last eight at a Grand Slam in a quarter-final exit at the US Open in 2020 and he will be desperate to emulate that here in Melbourne as the home press continue to neglect him in favour of Nick Kyrgios. This is a kind opener against Yu-Hsiou Hsu, with De Minaur’s breakneck speed always a handful against players meeting him for the first time, but the world number 208 qualified well this week to make his Grand Slam debut. Back De Minaur to win in straight sets here.
