THE PREDICTION
World number 212 Emina Bektas is making het Grand Slam debut at the age of 28 after qualifying well last week and that is going to be a powerful force for Liudmila Samsonova to stop on Tuesday. 23-year-old Samsonova just missed out on the seeds here in Melbourne after a breakthrough season on tour last year and a first WTA title won at the Berlin Open on grass. The world number 37 reached the round of 16 of Wimbledon on her debut in that form and se looks to have started 2022 well with a quarter-final exit to eventual Adelaide 2 champion Madison Keys in three sets last week. The Russian should bd winning this in straight sets but Bektas is playing the most important match of her career here and that makes an outright pick suitably cautious.
