Khachanov vs Korda Prediction & Pick

Both men have impressed in Melbourne thus far, however, one's run must end tonight. As great as Kachanov has looked, it's hard to ignore Korda's success over him.

Korda has defeated Khachanov in back-to-back meetings without losing a set. On top of that, both victories took place on hard courts. Khachanov has also had an easier lineup of opponents at the 2023 Aussie Open, whereas Korda had to take down Hurkacz and Daniil Medvedev — both top-10 players — in consecutive rounds.

I like the run that Korda is on and his recent victories should give him enough momentum to overcome Khachanov again.

Winner: Sebastian Korda

Khachanov vs Korda Best Bet

Oddsmakers are projecting this matchup to be closely fought, meaning I have no issue backing Korda on the moneyline as the best bet. He's already shown considerable success against Khachanov and has already taken down two higher-ranked opponents in Melbourne.

With a spot in the semifinal on the line, look for Korda to get the better of Khachanov yet again.

Bet: Sebastian Korda to Win (-124)
