LiontipsRafael Nadal vs Jack Draper. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2023 Australian Open (January 16, 2023).
Command Analysis
Rafael Nadal had a disappointing start to the new tour. At the United Cup, he lost two out of two matches. First, he yeilded to Cameron Norrie in three sets, and then was outplayed by Alex De Minaur. Last season, Nadal won the Australian Open. In the final of the Major, the Spaniard celebrated success over Daniil Medvedev.
Jack Draper is in good shape. Last week, he reached the semifinals of the tournament in Adelaide. On his way to the semifinals, Draper defeated Lorenzo Sonego, Tommy Paul, and Karen Khachanov only to be outplayed by the eventual winner of the tournament, Kwon Soon-woo. This will be the first final stage of the Australian Open for the Briton.
