This is match from the second round. Soeda is experienced competitor and he likes the hard courts outdoor most just like the conditions here. This will be the first match between them. Trabaglia is the higher ranked player but he plays on hard courts only when he is “forced to”. He is clay courts specialist and experience problems with taking ball early and adjusting his game to be more aggressive on return. I think the more experienced Soeda will take a set.

Tip Preview:
This is clash from the first round. Neither of those two is good on hard courts. Horansky has 62-41 career record and Vatutin is 73-35. Both of them will play their first match for the 2019 season. Also this will be the first match between them. I think this match will be tighter than the odds suggest and most likely will end in three sets but I go for the safer bet Horansky to win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Bellucci is lefty and a clay court specialists but his strong serve and sharp game could trouble anyone even on hard courts. He is far from his best but he is leading with 3-1 in the H2H against Rosol. The Czech also is seeking return to his best but started the year with two losses in straight sets. I think the Brazilian will take a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Bemelmans is one hundred place above his opponent. He is lefty with good serve and backhand. He is playing well on the faster surfaces but likes mostly to play indoors. Coppejans is leading with 3-1 in the H2H and no matter that he is clay court specialist he has sharp enough strokes to challenge Bemelmans and win a set minimum.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Sonego is the higher ranked player and he reached the quarter finals on the Playford Challenger. On the other hand the Italian is clay courts specialist and no matter that he has some good matches on hard courts he look vulnerable. Clarke is the fair outsider but he is playing mostly on hard courts last year and I think he will be competitive enough to win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. This Challenger is far from the strongest as most of the regular participants are in Australia to play in the qualifications for the main scheme of the Australian open. This will be first match between them. Grigelis is talented player and significantly better on indoors than Broady. Moreover Broady had woeful 2018 and started not bad start of this year. I think Grigelis could win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Both players will make their debut for the 2019 season. Shapovalov definitely is the more talented player and the better one overall. The question does the Canadian improved his mental strength enough to be consist throughout a whole tournament or even for a match. Sousa is player who will make less amount if unforced errors and he is former finalist here. I think the Portuguese will take a set minimum.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the R16. Cecchinato drew my attention in the end of 2018 when he had a nice run in Shanghai and did beat G.Simon and H.Chung before losing in the third round to N.Djokovic. He is clay court specialist and his game suits the slow courts most. Still he is No20 in the world and more or less he can have some success against fellow clay court specialist like D.Lajovic. In the H2H the result is 2-1 for Lajovic but all of the matches were on clay. The Serbian has significantly bigger success on hard courts than Cecchinato but his game is based on the longer rallies something that will give some chances to the Italian and I think Cecchinato will win a set at least.

Tip Preview:
This is very interesting match from the quarter finals and may be the most exiting one. Both likes to play in Brisbane and both are determined to win the title. In the H2H Nishikori is leading with 5-1 but the only win of the Bulgarian came here back in 2017. Nishikori take the ball earlier from both sides and that is the biggest problem for Dimitrov who need extra time to make his shots especially from backhand. Also Nishikori have great return and will neutralize one of the greatest weapons of the Bulgarian his first serve. Moreover the Japanese has great passing shots and I doubted that Dimitrov will have an easy time near the net. I back Nishikori to win.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round between two qualifiers. Humbert is significantly more talented. He had tremendously good 2018 finished with record 69/25 w/l. On the other hand Uchiyama is crafty player on hard court outdoors. He has balanced game and in my opinion will play free of pressure as he is in the position of an outsider. In the same time Humbert is the favorite but I doubted that he can take this match in straight sets and my call is the Japanese to win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the second round. Munar is decent talent and crafty player on clay. He has good base line shots and can stay long time in the rally. On the other hand on hard courts he does not change significantly his strategy which could be vital for the outcome of the match. In the H2H Bolelli is leading with 2-0 with both matches held on clay. The Italian won his last seven matches including three here. He has more aggressive game and the edge of the H2H. In my opinion the Italian will win this one.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Dominic Thiem has better match practice as he played three matches on the Abu Dhabi exhibition event. It is rare occasion for someone to play that many matches but Thiem lost two matches and replaced Nadal in the match for the third/fourth spot. He has match rhythm but I was far from impressed from his performance. Herbert is leading with 1-0 in the H2H and the French has solid game with good serve and perfect game near the net. I think he can exploit the modest mental condition of Thiem and to win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. The Russian proved his big class and won the third spot on the Mudabala Championship losing only from Novak Djokovic. On the other hand the Russian lost in straight sets from Wawrinka in their only previous meeting. Moreover the Swiss need points as fast as he can as he is just No66 in the world. I think the match will be close and it will most likely end in three sets, but I go for the safer bet Wawrinka to win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the firs round. I simply could not understand the bookmakers. They made the Belgian the clear favorite no matter that in the H2H record the result is 2-2. More important Berankis managed to win a set minimum in every match between them so far. Both have similar style of play. This will be the first match of Goffin for the new season and Berankis won two matches in the qualifications. I back the Lithuanian to win a set.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Ruvblev is young and talented. He already has been successful on both hard courts and clay. He is powerful player hitting the ball hard from both wings. On the other hand he have no second plan and he just hit the ball as hard as he can in spite if the position. This will be the first match between them. Seppi is solid player and he is the higher ranked from both players. He has reached the semifinal here back in 2015 and I think he can and will take a set minimum in this one.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Haase could be tricky opponent as he always find tactical way to push his higher ranked opponent. Still he is quite shaky and mentally unreliable. Jarry on the other hand established himself on the ATP tour. In the sole previous match between them Haase won in tight three sets affair back in the beginning of 2018 in Pune. Jarry matured and I think on odds bigger than 2.00 a bet for the Chilean is a must.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Both players lost their last two matches and will be looking forward into this one. Both players are ranked outside the first 230. Also both finished with negative record 2018. This will be the first match between them. Galovic is tall player who counts mostly on his serve and due that I think we will see a lot of easy serve holds and the line of 22 games looks reasonable.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Dimitrov does not have the best year and he dropped down to number 21. After the strong start of the year with quarter final on the Australian open, final in Rotterdam and the semifinal in Monte Carlo the Bulgarian’s form dropped down significantly. This will be their first meeting. Nishioka is lefty with tricky serve and very consist from the base line. He won his maiden ATP title in 2018 and I think he can steal a set in this one.

Tip Preview:
This will be the second quarter final of the event. The winner from this one here will meet the world No1 Djokovic and the motivation should be high enough for both players. Thiem showed some improvement in 2018 on hard court outdoors and reached the quarter finals of the US open losing in five set tie break from Nadal. On the other hand he ended the season with loss from M.Ebden. In the H2H Khachanov is leading with 1-0. The Russian will play with boosted morale after he won the ATP1000 in Paris on indoors beating Djokovic with 2-0 sets. Khachanov has won title on outdoors hard courts and no matter that he is not that persuasive on outdoors as on indoors he still have more flat shots which will help him to take the ball earlier and rouble a lot the big swing of Thiem. I think Khachanov will win this one.

Tip Preview:
This is match from the first round. Kohlschreiber is a veteran who is in general unpredictable on indoors. He has great variation in the shots and still good footwork. He battled through Haase in the first round and he is leading with 7-4 in the H2H. Cilic is the better player but he lost four from their last five matches. For sure he will be under pressure and also the German has played one match already. I think the German has his chances and will steal a set.
