Lucrezia Stefanini vs Jaqueline Cristian prediction
Lucrezia Stefanini got through both of her qualifying matches to enter the main draw at the Transylvania Open. She failed to do the same at the Australian Open, losing in the second stage to Whitney Osuigwe in straight sets. She is ranked 140 in the world.
Stefanini plays Jaqueline Cristian in the first-round. She lost early on in Melbourne to Karolina Muchova in straight sets. This was a tough draw for Cristian after showing some form in Adelaide, where she got through to the quarter-finals as a qualifier. This included a straight sets win over Ekaterina Alexandrova. The Romanian is at her highest ranking of 35 in the world and will be hoping to make an impression at a home tournament.
Cristain leads the head-to-head 1-0 after a straight sets win over Stefanini in Rouen three years ago. This is likely to be a similar result, with Cristian being the heavy favourite to advance.
