Carlos Alcaraz of Spain will lock horns with the upset-minded Adam Walton of Australia in the first round of the 2026 Australian Open.
Best Pick:
Payout:
Current Form:
Alcaraz will open his 2026 ATP season against Adam Walton, who is no stranger to playing a top-level player. Seeking to become the youngest player to complete a Career Grand Slam at the Australian Open, Alcaraz needs to stay sharp in every twist and turn of his journey in Melbourne. The Spaniard opened as a massive favorite on the betting lines at -10,000, establishing himself as one of the favorites to win the crown.
Ranked No.79 in the world, Walton is 1-6 in his last 7 matches and 1-2 since the start of the 2026 ATP season. Walton’s only win in this stretch came against the world’s No.475 Jake Dalaney, and he needed three sets to get the victory 6-2, 3-6, 7-6, in the first round of the 2026 Adelaide International. Walton then lost to Quentin Halys in straight sets 2-6, 7-6.

Our Carlos Alcaraz vs Adam Walton Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Carlos Alcaraz blows by Adam Walton 6-2, 6-2, 6-0
Fearless Forecast: Carlos Alcaraz has had a good warm-up leading up to the Australian Open. Alcaraz swept rival Jannik Sinner 7-5, 7-6 in a South Korean exhibition match and edged Joao Fonseca 7-5, 2-6, 10-6 at the Miami Invitational. Walton gave Alcaraz a competitive match in their first meeting, 4-6, 6-7 at the ATP 500 London in June 2025. However, with the form he’s currently in, I don’t think Walton can replicate the performance he delivered in that match against Alcaraz, who is hell-bent on completing a Career Grand Slam in Melbourne this year.
Our betting prediction for Carlos Alcaraz vs. Adam Walton: Carlos Alcaraz -9.5 Games
