Valeriya Strakhova vs Ana Candiotto prediction
Valeriya Strakhova will aim to use her greater pedigree to keep a homegrown talent at bay.
The 30-year-old world number 123 faces a Brazilian nine years her junior and who is ranked 257 places below her in the rankings.
However, the Ukrainian has only won one of her last six matches which may make her vulnerable against the South American wildcard.
Candiotto has been in much better form but it’s been below the top tier and mainly on clay.
It could be tricky if Strakhova fails to settle and there may be a worthwhile punt on it going three.
