Francesca Jones vs Alicia Herrero Linana prediction

Fran Jones will be full of confidence as she arrives in Romania with a title under her belt. 

The Brit put aside an early exit at Wimbledon by winning a 125 tournament on the dirt in Contrexeville.

The world number 104 will hope to continue her run on clay against the world number 358 Alicia Herrero Linana, who she will face for the first time. 

The Spaniard operates mainly on this surface, but it’s all at ITF level. 

Jones is currently at a career-high with a place in the top 100 tantalisingly close and we fancy her to keep pushing with a solid win here.
