Karolina Muchova vs Alycia Parks prediction
Karolina Muchova navigated the tricky task of Jaqueline Cristian in the first-round of the Australian Open to advance. She went an early break down but recovered with two quick breaks of her own to take the first set. She was on the verge of victory as she served for the match at 5-4, but Cristian broke back and took the second set into a tiebreak. The 29-year-old edged clear to win 6-3 7-6 (6).
She now takes on Alycia Parks. The American recovered from a poor start to impressively beat Alexandra Eala in three sets. Eala dominated as she took the first set without losing a game. However, Parks found her footing to break at the start of the second. Despite relinquishing that advantage, she broke again to take the second set. Parks dominated the decider, facing just one break point, as she sealed a 0-6 6-3 6-2 win after one hour and 55 minutes.
Parks’ serve will always be a threat if it’s firing, but Muchova’s sharp all-court game and vast experience on the hard courts make her the clear favourite to advance.
