Alex Michelsen faces Grigor Dimitrov in round one of the indoor hard court Dallas Open. Both players are unseeded and hoping to avoid a third successive defeat. Time for our match prediction.
A second round match against either third seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina or a qualifier awaits the winner here.
Alex Michelsen is playing this tournament for the third time in his career but has never made it past round two.
The 21-year-old has won four of his seven matches in 2026. The American was a semi-finalist in Brisbane but lost in round two in Auckland. His Australian Open ended in round one but he did take Karen Khachanov to five sets. Michelsen is 41st in the live rankings, just ahead of his opponent.
Grigor Dimitrov is making his debut in this tournament. The Bulgarian has only won one of his three matches played so far in 2026. That came in round one of the Brisbane International. He’s lost twice since then, most recently to Tomas Machac in straight sets at the Australian Open.
The 34-year-old is at least making it to the end of matches. Last year ended with two retirements and withdrawing from the Paris Masters.
We tip Alex Michelsen to get the win.
