There are lots of matches taking place at the Australian Open on Tuesday, with most of those matches getting underway during the early hours for US viewers. One of the matches due to begin around 5:00 AM (Eastern Time) sees Vit Kopriva and Jan-Lennard Struff go head-to-head. This won't be the first time that these two players have clashed in recent months. Back in November 2025, they met on a hard court in Lyon, where the German competitor made light work of winning, beating Kopriva in straight sets.
Jan-Lennard Struff is sometimes a frustrating player to watch. Clearly talented and very strong when serving at his best, the German often lets himself down, and he's not exactly thrived at the Australian Open, though he was a little unlucky to face someone as strong as Felix Auger-Aliassime during the first round last year. This is a much easier task, one that he should be capable of completing.

Our Vit Kopriva vs Jan-Lennard Struff Prediction
Far from the most consistent performer out there, Jan-Lennard Struff can be a very tough opponent on a hard surface. A strong server, the German typically does his best work on the fastest courts, and while the courts at the Aussie Open are not right up there with the fastest on the tour, they're certainly far from the slowest, so it's easy to envisage Struff dominating against the lower-ranked Kopriva.
When the pair last met on a hard court, back in November, Struff won in straight sets. I'm betting that he can get it done here without losing any more than a single set.
Our Vit Kopriva vs Jan-Lennard Struff Pick: Jan-Lennard Struff to Win -1.5 Set Handicap.
