Veronika Erjavec vs Leolia Jeanjean prediction
Veronika Erjavec has a best ever Grand Slam result of reaching the second round at Wimbledon last summer. The Slovenian struggled in qualification for the Eastbourne Open last week, beaten by Alja Tomljanovic in straight sets.
Leolia Jeanjean has performed well over the last week, coming from behind to defeat You Xiaodi before victories against Ekaterine Gorgodze and Katie Volynets to reach the first round. This is already her best ever performance at Wimbledon.
Jeanjean, who remains ranked in the mid-100’s, has performed well to reach this stage and she will fancy herself to be competitive against Erjavec in a likely long match here.
