Sebastian Korda v Otto Virtanen Head to Head
Korda and Virtanen have never faced off before this.
Korda Returns after Australian Open
Sebastian Korda’s mixed bag of a career continued into 2025 when he started off with a finals appearance at the Adelaide International after winning just two matches but then lost two of his next three matches.
This included a defeat at the hands of Felix Auger-Aliassime in that very final and a second round loss to Aleksandar Vukic at the Australian Open.
Even his first round triumph there, against Lukas Klein needed him to fight hard, winning it in a fourth set tie-breaker.
Korda had featured in this tournament last year too, losing to Grigor Dimitrov in the second round. He will hope he can start things off with a win here and at the very least emulate that showing.

Virtanen 0-3 to Start off the Season
It’s been a start to forget in 2025 for Otto Virtanen. He began the year straightaway at the Australian Open without having played a tune-up tournament and was knocked out, as expected, by the 1/7 favourite Arthur Fils.
That he made him work for his win, taking a set off him, would have given him some confidence.
At a Challenger in Quimper, he lost to Ukraine’s Vitaliy Sachko and when Virtanen featured in the Davis Cup where he took on Lukas Neumayer. And for the third time in a row, he was beaten.
While Virtanen has the potential, having entered this season on the back of three Challenger titles last season, he would like to start winning at the highest level on a regular basis.
Against Korda he might find that difficult to do but based on what has been on offer we could see a fight.
Korda v Virtanen Prediction
Korda is an obvious favourite and while we won’t be betting against that, we also think Virtanen could snatch a set here.
