Tomas Machac vs James Duckworth prediction
Tomas Machac began his season with an early exit in Brisbane as he was defeated by defending champion and compatriot Jiri Lehecka in straight sets. Machac will hope to get more matches under his belt before the first major of the season at the Australian Open. He is a strong player on hard courts but can be prone to injuries.
He faces James Duckworth in the first-round. The Australian was able to qualify in Brisbane wins over Tristan Schoolkate and Terence Atmane. He then took the first set against Alex Michelsen in his round one match, but Michelsen would level the match up and control the decider to advance.
This is their first match on the ATP Tour, though Duckworth won their previous two meetings at Challenger level. However, Machac will be looking to get his season up and running with a win here and his strong all-court game is likely to provide him with enough opportunities against Duckworth.
