THE PREDICTION
This looks a tough match to call in a first meeting between Varvara Gracheva and Lucia Bronzetti, with both players yet to win this season. 21-year-old Gracheva was handed a double bagel by Sorana Cirstea in her first match of the year last week but third round exits at Roland-Garros and the US Open last season is evidence of what she can achieve here if she ups her game. World number 142 Bronzetti was far more competitive in her defeat to Sofia Kenin at Adelaide 1 last week and she is making her Grand Slam debut here in Melbourne after qualifying well. The momentum from qualifying coupled with the joy of making her major debut here suggests taking the Italian to win at least a set could be the shrewd move.
