Jaime Faria vs Stan Wawrinka ATP Gstaad Tips, Prediction & Live Stream


Stan Wawrinka's farewell tour continues when the home favourite takes on Jaime Faria in the first round of the Swiss Open in Gstaad on Tuesday.

Wawrinka made his first appearance at this tournament all the way back in 2003 and he's about to play his last 23 years later, celebrating an incredible career in front of his adoring Swiss fans. The 41-year-old will retire at the end of the season in Basel and will hope to get one last Grand Slam appearance at the US Open after impressing in a four-set Wimbledon defeat to Matteo Berrettini.

Obviously Wawrinka is still capable of some great tennis, but his consistency and body are holding him back in the twilight of his career - so unfortunately, I just can't see him getting over the line here.

Faria is in career-best form after a brief injury setback earlier this year and comes into this clash after making the third round of Roland Garros and second round of Wimbledon after qualifying. The Portuguese player loves a scrap and should relish the atmosphere, which will provide added motivation that can sometimes lack in these clay 250 events after Wimbledon.

I'm taking Faria to cover a small -2.5 games line in victory, while there's always a chance Wawrinka can snatch a set, but fade as the match goes the distance, so a small stake also on Faria in three.
  • Faria has won 13 of his last 17 matches at all levels
  • Faria has covered a -2.5 line in five of his last six wins in best-of-three set matches
  • Faria has won his first match in his last 10 tournaments
  • Wawrinka has a 3-12 record vs top 100 players this season
  • Wawrinka has taken a set in five of his 10 defeats in best-of-three matches this season

Faria vs Wawrinka Head To Head

This will be the first meeting between the pair.

Jaime Faria Form Analysis

  • 2026 ATP Record: 6-5
  • ATP Gstaad Record: 0-0
  • Current Ranking: No. 92
  • Career-High Ranking: No. 87 (2025)

It's been a good season for Faria and he comes into this contest just five spots shy of his career-high ranking.

After recovering from some injury setbacks earlier in the year, Faria built up his ranking again by reaching two Challenger finals in Sao Paulo and Mauthausen before making an impact at the bigger tournaments.

The 22-year-old qualified and made the third round of Roland Garros, beating Grigor Dimitrov, Denis Shapovalov and Jan-Lennard Struff along the way before going down in five sets to Frances Tiafoe.

Faria again qualified at Wimbledon, advancing to the second round before a four-set loss to Eastbourne champion Zizou Bergs.

Stan Wawrinka Form Analysis

  • 2026 ATP Record: 3-12
  • ATP Gstaad Record: 10-13
  • Current Ranking: No. 117
  • Career-High Ranking: No. 3 (2014)

Obviously Wawrinka is playing a limited schedule and isn't worried about his ranking in his final year on tour, instead focusing on the big moments and looking to create more memories.

The 41-year-old enjoyed a great Aussie summer, playing some brilliant matches in the United Cup before making the third round of the Australian Open, taking a set off Taylor Fritz.

Wawrinka has struggled to reproduce that sort of level throughout the year, but he was able to play some spectacular tennis at stages during four-set opening round defeats to Jesper De Jong and Matteo Berrrettini at Roland Garros and Wimbledon.

Wawrinka will be hoping for one last win in Gstaad, a tournament he started playing over two decades ago. He doesn't have a great record at the event, going beyond the quarter-finals just twice in 13 previous appearances.
