David Goffin 7th in the ATP rankings meets with Matthias Bachinger ranked 182 in this first round of the Australian Open.
David Goffin is a solid player, I expect him to win this match. However Goffin is often losing sets in early tournaments. On purpose or not, I don't know, but Goffin has lost a set in all of his 1st round match in the Australian Open. 4 1st round matches , no 3-0 win and despite good draws.
Last year , he went 5 sets Reily Opelka, 2016 4 sets with Stakhovsky, 2015 4 sets with Michael Russell and 2013 lost in 5 to Verdasco.
Following couple of bad years , Bachinger is back playing at a good level. He looked really solid in qualifications and he's a good server. I expect him to challenge Goffin on one or two set and maybe make this match really competitive. Over 3.5 sets at 3.00 on unibet
