Alex de Minaur v Andy Murray Head to Head
There have been four previous meetings between these two players and de Minaur has won every single time.

de Minaur Enters at Career-Best Ranking
Having hit a season low of 25th in February this year, de Minaur has slowly but surely risen in the ranks since then and now enters this tournament ranked 12th in the world. That’s also his career-best ranking.
What makes this even better from, and even more crucial for de Minaur is the fact that he is 11th in the Race to Turin rankings. With the top eight players in this rankings charts qualifying for the ATP Finals, de Minaur knows he will need to do even better from this point onward to find his way into his maiden ATP Finals spot.
For now, however, he will be looking for a spot in the second round of this tournament and up against him is a player he has defeated multiple times before this.
Add de Minaur’s form to this mix, with the Aussie having won an ATP title and made the final of the Cincinnati Masters in August and we are looking at a player who deservedly starts off a 1/3 favourite here (with bet365).

Former Winner Murray Hoping to Do Better Than Recent Times
While Murray had a solid time on the Challenger circuit on grass, his performances since then – i.e. in June this year – have dipped a little.
In only one of the six tournaments that Murray has played since winning the Nottingham Challenger, he’s won two matches in a row and that’s made for a difficult proposition for him coming into this tournament in Beijing.
Even last week, Murray had his difficulties overcoming the 666th-ranked Ye Cong Mo before Aslan Karatsev sent him packing in the second round of the Zhuhai Open.
What Murray will hope to do here is to tweak his game-play against de Minaur, a player whom he has never beaten at the highest level of tennis before. It might not be easy and that’s also why he is 23/10 (bet365) to surprise de Minaur but Murray does have the experience and craftiness to test out most players in the world even at the moment.
de Minaur v Murray Prediction and Tip
Backing de Minaur for the win with the Aussie coming into this fresh from having featured in the Davis Cup and won two of his three singles matches there. We could see Murray put a small fight but a straight set win looks likely.
