Petra Marcinko vs Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva prediction
Despite a poor start to the campaign, Petra Marcinko’s season seems to have picked up in recent weeks, as she won two of her three matches at the Billie Jean King Cup, before advancing through to the semi-finals in Oeiras just a few days ago. This included wins over Rebecca Sramkova and Greetje Minnen. She was a set away from the final but lost in the decider to Sinja Kraus.
She faces Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva. The Romanian has lost her last four matches. After qualifying for Indian Wells and winning her opening round match, she was defeated by four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka. Jimenez Kasintseva then subsequently lost in the first stage of qualifying for her next three events, in Miami, Linz and Stuttgart.
Marcinko is beginning to play with confidence and consistency, and that should give her a clear edge against an out-of-form Jimenez Kasintseva, who has struggled to find rhythm in recent outings.
