My Prediction
Tien in 4 sets.Alright, let's dissect this upcoming clash on the Australian courts. We have Learner Tien, seed 16, up against the unseeded Corentin Moutet.
Tien has been dishing out defeat like a disgruntled lunch lady, taking his last five matches, two of them in straight sets. Moutet, on the other hand, dropped a pair of matches recently that could've used some extra glue. The record shows Learner not just learning, but schooling his opponents.
We're on a hard surface at Melbourne Park, and these courts, like my grandma's meatloaf, have little to absorb. They're fast - serves fly like tormented bats and the bounce is higher than my expectations for this match. It should suit Tien, who seems like he could apply spin to a pancake.
So here's my prediction, more sure than my self-diagnosed lactose intolerance: Tien is going to take this one, probably teaching young Moutet a lesson or two in the process.
Albert’s Prediction: Tien in 4 sets.
