Diane Parry vs Emma Raducanu prediction
Diane Parry comes into this event after her title win in Paris on the ITF circuit. Madison Keys was forced to retire in the final, despite going a set up. That was a timely return to form for Parry, who was on a five-match losing run heading into the tournament.
Emma Raducanu has not competed on the tour for two months due to illness, but she makes her return in Strasbourg ahead of Roland Garros. The 2021 US Open champion has not taken to the court since Indian Wells in March, with a post-viral infection leading to her withdrawing from events in Madrid, Rome and Linz. Raducanu did reach her first tour-level final for five years at the Transylvania Open in February, but her overall level remains something of an unknown after such a lengthy absence at a crucial stage of the season.
Raducanu leads the head-to-head 1-0 after a win at the Billie Jean King Cup two years ago on clay. However, she will be short of match sharpness and Parry’s recent success makes this a tough first-round match for the Brit.
Diane Parry vs Emma Raducanu tip: Over 2.5 sets
