Vienna Prediction: Bublik vs Tabilo 10/20/2025 Today’s Tennis Picks

Eighth seed Alexander Bublik will face World No. 73 Alejandro Tabilo in the first round of the 2025 Vienna Open on Monday, October 20. Here’s our Alexander Bublik vs Alejandro Tabilo prediction. This preview will also include an Alexander Bublik vs Alejandro Tabilo pick.

Alexander Bublik vs Alejandro Tabilo Preview

Alexander Bublik is the No. 8 seed at the Vienna Open, where he is making his second visit. Bublik’s maiden appearance in this tournament was back in 2019 when he lost in the first round to Andrey Rublev in three sets.

Bublik will enter the Vienna Open as one of the dark horses to win the tournament after an outstanding 2025 season. The 28-year-old sits at a career-high ranking of No. 16 after winning four titles, and on all three surfaces.

But since lifting the title in Hangzhou in late September, Bublik has lost in each of his next tournaments at the first hurdle. His most recent defeat is unlikely to hurt so much, considering he succumbed to a second-round loss to eventual champion Valentin Vacherot in Shanghai.

Alejandro Tabilo is back in the top 100 wth the Chilean putting together a decent resurgence in the second half of 2025. He made two finals at the Asian swing. Tabilo was the runner-up at the Guangzhou Challenger, but won the tournament in Chengdu after saving match points in the final against Lorenzo Musetti.

Since that title win, his second on the ATP Tour, Tabilo has played in three more tournaments and is coming off a quarterfinal run at the Olbia Challenger in Italy. This will be his first main draw appearance in Vienna.

Alexander Bublik vs Alejandro Tabilo Prediction

I’m going with the overs in total games. With neither player likely to mess about in their service games, we could be guaranteed at least one tiebreak set or potentially the match stretching to three. Bublik is the rightful favorite, but it’s always best to avoid taking the Kazakh at current odds on the money line, given his fluctuating level between tournaments.
