Anastasia Tikhonova vs Despina Papamichail prediction

Despina Papamichail has been notching up solid results of late with deep runs across her last couple of lower tier tournaments.

The Greek has also notched three tour-level wins this season and at 162 in the world is eyeing a potential new career high having been as high as 143 in the rankings back in 2022.

First up here, the 33-year-old tackles Anastasia Tikohonova, who will be playing just her seventh main draw match at the age of 25.

The Russian world number 253 will hope it’s her lucky number given she has never won a match at this level, but sadly we don’t see the narrative changing this time around.
