In his four previous visits to the Australian Open, the Japanese number two behind Yoshihito Nishioka had only previous got beyond the first round once.
His biggest success on the ATP tour came back in 2018 when he won the Istanbul Open on clay, although he has enjoyed success on the Challenger tour more recently than that.

Third Time in Melbourne Main Draw for Escobedo
This is the third time that Escobedo has appeared in the main draw at the Australian Open.
He came through qualifying to make the second round in 2017, and then went out at the first round stage last year.
This time he has earned the right to play Daniel, with three consecutive straight set victories, beating Luca Nardi of Italy, Rio Noguchi of Japan, and Pavel Kotov of the Czech Republic, all of whom are higher ranked than him.
Although born in California and eligible to play internationally for the US, last year he opted to represent Mexico instead.
A year ago he enjoyed success on the Challenger tour on Australian soil, winning a tournament in Bendigo.
Daniel v Escobedo Prediction and Tip
