Donna Vekic vs Bernarda Pera prediction
A fourth round finisher at Roland Garros back in 2023, Bernarda Pera is an underrated clay court player and that was emphasised by how she dispatched home favourite Caroline Garcia in the first round. Holding her nerve with the crowd against her, Pera’s power helped her record six aces and an impressive three break point wins out of a possible five, showing a high level of clutch play and cutting edge.
Donna Vekic meanwhile, made it through to round two with a 7-5, 6-7, 6-1 win against Anna Blinkova. The Croatian’s class told in the third set but there were potential holes shown by Vekic and Pera has the game to exploit them. The American is definitely one of the most dangerous non-seeded players remaining in the competition.
With that in mind, when assessing the field for potential second round shocks, this contest could well deliver one of them. If Pera takes her opportunities as clinically as she did against Garcia then she stands an excellent chance of pulling off a surprise. Backing her to triumph offers good value and should be seriously considered.
