Jordan Thompson vs Nuno Borges Prediction & Picks - ATP Australian Open

 by Bradley Gibbs | in ATP Australian Open Picks

The second round of matches at the Australian Open are beginning to get underway, and on Wednesday (or Tuesday evening for US viewers), there are some interesting matches, including the one that sees Jordan Thompson take on Nuno Borges. As an Aussie, Thompson will be looking to impress down under, though he's not been too consistent on hard courts in recent times, while he certainly wasn't at his best when beating a player ranked outside of the top 100 during the first round. Can Borges defy the early odds and upset the home-court player? He just might.

Our Jordan Thompson vs Nuno Borges Prediction

Listen, in Australia Thompson is not a player to easily dismiss, I get that. However, it's absolutely right that he hasn't been firing on all cylinders, and it's fair to say that he looked some way off his best during that first round. In contrast, Borges created a decent impression by beating a decent player, while he's been in sold hard-court form since the turn of the year, beating some very useful players such as Navone, Darderi and Mensik in Auckland last week. If we factor in that the Portuguese player has a perfect record against Thompson, then it's easy to feel that he's worthy of shorter odds. Our Pick: Nuno Borges to Win.
