Iva Jovic vs Emma Navarro prediction
Iva Jovic comes into this one on the back of a fairly emphatic victory of Alexandra Eala the other day, winning 6-4, 6-2. 18-year-old Jovic is one of the most exciting prospects in women’s tennis, having reached the quarter-finals of the Australian Open earlier this year.
Emma Navarro has enjoyed some really impressive Grand Slam performances in recent memories, but her form has dipped since the summer of 2024 up until the beginning of 2025. That said, the world number 25 backed up her winning of the Strasbourg Open last week by comfortably defeating Janice Tjen in straight sets the other day.
This is a really close contest and, for the second round of a Grand Slam, features two very high quality players so a close and potentially long match appears in store on Thursday.
Iva Jovic vs Emma Navarro tip: Over 2.5 sets
