What better way for Adrian Mannarino vs Sho Shimabukuro than in the RO32 of the 2026 Acapulco Open? 130th-ranked underdog Shimabukuro will be looking for another upset, but Mannarino is determined for redemption after just losing the Open Occitanie earlier this month. Let's get into this match prediction.
Following 11 straight singles defeats, Mannarino locked in and made it all the way to the Open Occitanie this February before losing out to World No.8 Felix-Auger Aliassime. He had his eyes set on the next prize after beating Adam Walton in the Dallas Open, but Ben Shelton cut that dream short in a dramatic three-set 19-16 brawl.
Mannarino now jumps straight into the RO32 of the Acapulco Open with the goal of another deep run that could see him end his three-year title drought with a sixth trophy. But Japan’s Shimabukuro has other ideas. Shimabukuro is already off to a great start in this tournament with two qualification wins without conceding a set.
His latest victory was a walkover against Zachary Svadja, the heavy underdog, who took an early 5-1 lead in the first set. What's more, Shimabukuro has won six of his last eight singles. Although all six were qualifying games, which were immediately followed by exits in the main knockouts.

Our Adrian Mannarino vs Sho Shimabukuro Prediction

While Shimabukuro has won six of his last eight games, he never made it past the first game after the qualifiers in that span.

Hence, our Adrian Mannarino vs Sho Shimabukuro prediction is that Adrian Mannarino wins.
