Aleksander Vukic and Alex Michelsen kick off day two of RO16 action in the Almaty Open. Can the Australian finally beat the American for a final 8 spot, or will history repeat itself? Explore our Aleksander Vukic vs Alex Michelsen match prediction below.

For us, Michelsen will manage a third win against Vukic in their third meeting, and the biggest telling factor is their H2H history alongside their recent form. Alex Michelsen has defeated Aleksander Vukic in their only two meetings, and while that was two years ago, it's worth pointing out that the American was the underdog in both previous games.

Now, Michelsen has come a long way to reach, climbing to the 36th spot in the official ATP rankings, making him the rightful favorite against the 84th-ranked Vukic. As for form, Michelsen hasn't looked his best in recent games, losing six of his last 11 singles. However, with half of those defeats coming against top-20 players, it's understandable.

Michelsen would want to pick up momentum from his latest RO32 victory against Beibit Zhukayev, where he won 6-2,6-3. The road for Vukic has also been rocky, with the Australian losing three of his last five singles and seven of his last 14. And he also struggled a bit in his 2-1 win over Marlo Topo in the RO32.
