The Australian Open (W) match between Gabriela Andrea Knutson and Lizette Cabrera is scheduled to start at 2:00 AM UTC on 12 January 2026, which corresponds to 1:00 PM Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) in Melbourne.

The match will be played at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Australia, most likely on one of the outside show courts or secondary arenas rather than Rod Laver Arena, with the complex featuring Plexicushion hard courts, medium pace conditions, and a capacity ranging from a few thousand on outer courts up to over 14,000 in the main stadium.

Given Cabrera’s hard-court pedigree and home conditions in Australia, a reasonable prediction is a tight win for Lizette Cabrera in either straight sets or three sets, with implied probabilities from current odds suggesting roughly a 56–58% chance for Cabrera and 42–44% for Knutson, making Cabrera on the moneyline and Knutson on game handicaps both interesting options depending on risk appetite.

There is limited official WTA-level head-to-head history between Gabriela Andrea Knutson and Lizette Cabrera, and no recent main-tour meetings are recorded in the past month, so this encounter effectively serves as their first notable professional clash, increasing the importance of recent form and surface preference over historical matchup data.
