Felix Auger-Aliassime v Alexander Bublik Head to Head
These two have faced off four times before this and both players have won two matches each.
Auger-Aliassime won his matches at the 2019 Shanghai Masters and 2022 Basel Indoors while Bublik was a winner at the 2020 Hamburg Open and 2024 Montpellier Open.
Auger-Aliassime 12-4 after Doha Semifinal Loss
Felix Auger-Aliassime might not have made a splash at the Australian Open this year, getting knocked out in the second round by Alejandro Davidovich Fokina but other than that showing, he has been one of the players to watch out.
The Canadian player had begun the season with a title at Adelaide and later added one more in Montpellier.
More recently, Auger-Aliassime featured in the Qatar Open where he made the semifinals, albeit thanks to a walkover from Hamad Medjedovic and a retirement from Daniil Medvedev.
There he was beaten by Andrey Rublev but not before he had given his Russian opponent a run for his money.
Can he continue that run against a player who has had a struggle this season?

Bublik in Strife in 2025
Dominik Koepfer and Richard Gasquet.
These are the only two players that Alexander Bublik has been able to defeat this season so far and to go with that, he has lost six matches. Four of those losses have come in the first round of competitions.
On the one hand, one can argue that Bublik has been forced to take on the likes of Andrey Rublev, Ugo Humbert and Francisco Cerundolo, players who could be tricky to face even on their worst days.
The issue is that Bublik has had these challenges of going off the boil at times, having experienced this last year too.
Which is why, going up against Auger-Aliassime, it would become that much more difficult for him to turn a corner.
Auger-Aliassime v Bublik Prediction
While Bublik can make things happen at times, we think Auger-Aliassime is in some excellent form coming into this and can be expected to ease through to the second round.
