Panna Udvardy vs Darja Vidmanova prediction

Panna Udvardy will aim to snap a four-match losing run to get off the mark in 2026 in Ostrava.

The Hungarian has struggled for form since lifting the Buenos Aires 125 title on clay back in November.

The world number 90 faces home hope Darja Vidmanova, who will be featuring in just her third main draw match at the highest level. 

Panna is the favourite here but much prefers clay, which could make this interesting given Darja is on home turf and is much more comfortable on the surface.

We feel the odds favour Upvardy, so a punt on the upset is worthwhile as the 52 places Vidmanova sits below the eighth seed won’t count for much in this showdown.
