Maria Sakkari vs Mirra Andreeva prediction
Maria Sakkari booked her place in the second-round of the Australian Open after overcoming Leolia Jeanjean in straight sets. The former world number three was broken early on and went 4-1 down but reeled off five games in a row to take the first set. She raced clear in the second to win 6-4 6-2.
She goes up against Mirra Andreeva next. The 18-year-old recovered from going down a set to beat Donna Vekic. Andreeva, who won the Adelaide International in the lead up to this slam, broke in the middle of the second set and dominated after that, winning the last seven games to claim a 4-6 6-3 6-0 victory.
Sakkari will take some confidence from her first-round display, but Andreeva was really finding her rhythm towards the end of her match with Vekic and has won seven of her eight matches so far this season. She is the commanding favourite in this one and will be expected to win comfortably.
