Auger-Aliassime v Cazaux Head to Head
There have been two previous meetings between these two players, at this very tournament in 2024 and at the Adelaide International earlier this month. And on both occasions, it was Auger-Aliassime who won the encounter but in three hard-fought sets.
Auger-Aliassime Wins Adelaide But Stumbles in Melbourne
Following a 1-1 record at the United Cup, Felix Auger-Aliassime put up a strong showing at the Adelaide International. Following a first round bye, he edged out Arthur Cazaux in the second round before easing past Marcos Giron in the quarterfinals.
Tommy Paul took him to the third set in the semifinals but Auger-Aliassime found a way to edge past him before he took down Sebastian Korda in the final to notch up an early title for the season.
As a result, Auger-Aliassime would have gone into the season’s first major with a lot of confidence but the Canadian player fell in the second round.
What would have been an even bigger bother was the fact that Auger-Aliassime was two sets to love up and yet, managed to lose the next three as Alejandro Davidovich Fokina’s game improved as the match progressed.
Auger-Aliassime now kick-starts his campaign in a tournament he made the semifinals in last year.

Cazaux Eases Past Wawrinka
Stan Wawrinka’s glory days look to be far behind him but one would have thought that Arthur Cazaux would still have needed to put up some showing in their opening round match.
As it turned out, Cazaux needed just an hour and a half to beat his doubles partner in the tournament and move into the round of 16. He won 6-4, 6-3.
Enduring eight aces from Wawrinka, Cazaux also saved the two break-points he faced in the encounter. On the other hand, he overcame his Swiss opponent’s serve on three occasions, including twice in the second set.
Cazaux entered this tournament on the back of successive second round appearances in Adelaide and at the Australian Open. Can he now break the hoodoo and win two in a row?
Auger-Aliassime v Cazaux Prediction
Auger-Aliassime might have made an early exit at the Australian Open but he is now back on a surface which he loves and we expect him to come through here with some ease.
