Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs Antonia Ruzic prediction

Antonia Ruzic booked a spot in her first ever WTA semi-final with a dominant win over Olga Danilovic.

The Croatian scored a 6-3 6-3 success over the Serb and will take on Elisabetta Cocciaretto in the last four.

The Italian outclassed Anna Bondar 6-2 6-2 to set a fourth showdown between the pair.

Ruzic leads the head-to-head 2-1 with all matches taking place last year. Antonia is also 2-0 up on hardcourts and has won the last two encounters. 

The Croatian world number 71 sits nine places above her opponent too, but you can’t rule out Cocciaretto when she’s fit and playing the sort of tennis that has taken her this far.

Ruzic is the obvious bet but with a final spot at place, it could be a battle to the death and better value if you are happy to take a risk and go for the bigger pay out.

Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs Antonia Ruzic tip: Over 2.5 sets
