Giulia Safina Popa vs Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva prediction
It’ll be a battle of teenagers when Romania’s 15-year-old Giulia Safina Popa looks to upset Andorra’s 19-year-old Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva.
The starlet playing on home turf battled her way through qualifying and will be making her main tour debut.
Kasintseva, who is ranked at 130, has yet to win at the highest tier this year but is far more experienced at ITF level and will be an overwhelming favourite to triumph.
Popa will be able to hit freely and the unknown factor could work in her favour, but once the early sparring is over it’s hard to look beyond a routine success for the Kasintseva.
Giulia Safina Popa vs Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva tip: Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva to win 2-0
