Although Peru and Switzerland may not look too bad, I choose a safer option, so that Stan wins at least two sets. In the first stage and throughout this tournament, Wawrinka shines and although he doesn't play his best tennis, the former winner of this tournament, Wawrinka shows that even in these years and in his final season he can play against anyone. The young French player is interesting, but he will have to deal with pressure, and the experienced Swiss player looks very good and I believe he will be able to win even against him.

Perhaps the coefficient is not the highest, but it looks like a highly anticipated event. The unstable and recovering Polish player is the clear favorite for the meeting, and he has a strong serve, but he often struggles to win sets. The second round of the Australian Open awaits a tough opponent for him, as the opponent calmly defeated Griekspoor 3-0. As usual in Polish matches, I believe we can expect long sets and tiebreakers, which are usually accompanied by wins. Therefore, I hope that both players will win at least one set, as this match is expected to be very tenacious.

Asia Championship.

Marcinko Petra - a 20-year-old Croatian from Ghana, so I think she should face her opponent here, as Marcinko mainly plays only in ITF level tournaments, and whenever she had the chance to participate in Grand Slams, she never made it past qualifying. This year, she has already set a record.
On the other hand, there is 24-year-old American Stearns Peyton, who always plays in top-level tournaments, but her results are not very impressive. In the first round, she will face her compatriot Kenin, who has a high WTA ranking of 30th. So, there is room for close competition.

Pliskova Karolina - a 33-year-old Czech, a legendary player, former WTA 1 player, but after starting to suffer from injuries, she rarely appears on the court. In 2025, she played only three matches, and this year only one. Currently, Karolina can only play consistently in the first set and mainly against ITF level players. Although her victory over Stephens in the first round should not be underestimated, it can be seen as a big advantage in this match, as the American is also 32 years old and has not played much since her serious injury, only six matches and all of them were lost. Karolina currently struggles to control the ball and often makes mistakes, especially when serving. On the other hand, the Indonesian representative Tjen Janice has shown great control in her game, with a record of 7 wins and 3 losses in ITF tournaments, including a win at a higher-level challenger tournament, and a loss in the final of a WTA tournament. She is known for her stable and persistent style of play, which may not suit Pliskova. After her two sets win over L.Fernandez in Peru, this should be an easy match for her.

Without a doubt, the central game tomorrow holds a lot of value. Karolina Pliskova, a 33-year-old Czech, is a legendary player and former WTA number one, but due to recent injuries, she has hardly been seen on the courts. In 2025, she played a total of three matches, one of which was this year. Now, Karolina can only play competitively in the first set and mostly against ITF level tennis players. The fact that she beat Stephens in the first round shouldn't be underestimated - it's even a big advantage for this game, considering that the American is also 32 and hasn't played much after serious injuries. In Peru, she played only six matches and lost them all. Karolina is now having a hard time keeping the ball in play and tries to hit winners, but makes too many mistakes, even when serving. On the other side, Indonesian representative Tjen Janice is very good at controlling the ball from the back, which has led to her success in ITF tournaments - seven wins and three losses in the finals, including one win in a higher-level challenger tournament and a loss in the final of a WTA level tournament. She is known for her stable and consistent play, which will not be pleasing to Pliskova. After her match against L. Fernandez in Peru, which she won in two sets, this should be an easy match for her.

Friendly Switzerland. Xamax demonstrates a good, productive football during the winter break, both the first team and reserves are in good form, scoring a lot and winning. On Sunday, the official competitions begin, so I believe their momentum won't be lost. Today, the opponent is also favorable - from a lower league, and they also play attacking football, so it is likely that their successful streak will continue.

Friendly Unity. They are not very productive in their leagues, therefore their coefficient is not too bad, but in friendly matches they often show a different side, which is typical for Austrian clubs during the winter break or offseason. They can both score and concede, and matches often end in a high score. I hope for something similar this evening.

Recently, Porto has been appearing very strong in all championships and looks quite successful. Their long and excellent series in Peru, as well as their almost perfect defense, shows that the Portuguese team is in top form. Like many other teams, Plzen has not played official matches for a long time and cannot substitute them with friendlies, so Porto's match with Peru seems like a very logical option.

The Betis club, undefeated in any match in Europe, should continue their successful streak. The opponent is interesting, but by no means an equal competitor to the Spanish club. Betis displays a very strong defense and fights for first place, and even in this season having lost only 4 games shows that Betis will not be defeated.
