Could we see an all-Kazakhstan match in round two of the indoor hard court Almaty Open? That will be so if wild card Timofey Skatov can beat unseeded Fabian Marozsan to set up a second round match against third seed Alexander Bublik. However, Skatov has lost six of his last eight matches and our prediction is Marozsan wins in straight sets.
Fabian Marozsan is the world number 64, while his opponent is down in 201st position.
Marozsan has won 22 of his 46 matches played this year. This is only his second indoor hard court match of the year. His other saw the Hungarian win a Davis Cup match against Luxembourg's Louis Van Herck in straight sets last month. :Last year he was a quarter-finalist in this tournament, beating Brandon Nakashima but losing to eventual champion Daniil Medvedev.
In 2026, Marozsan has reached three ATP Tour semi-finals.
Timofey Skatov will have the home fans cheering him on, but he faces a tough task to reach round two of this ATP 250 tournament.
Skatov's last match saw him defeated by Bernard Tomic in the qualifying rounds of the Shanghai Masters. He has reached two Challenger Tour finals this year on an outdoor hard court and clay. On the ATP Tour, Skatov last won a main draw match on clay in Estoril three months ago.
