Lusrezia Stephanini vs Veronica Kudematova Prediction

Lusrezia Stephanini could not get it out of the qualifying for the Madrid Open and fell to defeat in the second round of the Catalonia Open on the Challenger Tour. He defeated Alexandra Krunic in the first round, but was largely unpredictable against Alona Bolsova, losing 6–4 6–3 to Spaniels.

She will compete in her domestic event, but is her work cut in the first round against Veronica Kudematova. Russian had a very strong overall tournament in Madrid as she reached the third round, including a win over Sister Polina before losing to Marta Costux in a close three set match.

She also reached the doubles final with Elis Martens, but lost to the pair of Anna Kalinskaya and Sorrana Sirstia. Kudrametova struggled here last year, now retired 6-3-3-00 on Angelic Kerber in the first round defeat.

Nevertheless, he is very civilized around this time and should comfortably win this encounter in straight sets.

Lusrezia Stephanini vs Veronica Kudematova Tip: Vernoika Kudematova to win 2–0
