Varvara Gracheva vs Mirra Andreeva prediction

Gracheva is the more experienced of the two players. The 23-year-old Frenchwoman has a very strong return game and has had a total of 35 break-point opportunities in her three matches so far. Andreeva, meanwhile, has had 34 thus far. Hence, it will be a battle between two good serve returners.

However, Gracheva has played on big occasions far more frequently and knows how to win key matches. Andreeva's youth and exuberance are great assets to have, but might not be enough to stop the Frenchwoman. However, the Russian will still take heart from her win in the second round over a two-time Grand Slam champion like Azarenka.

Ad

The fact that Gracheva has failed to advance past the third round of the Major on her home ground in her four prior attempts will also give Andreeva hope. However, Gracheva should still start as the favorite and have enough in her kitty to beat Andreeva on Sunday.

Pick: Varvara Gracheva to win in three sets.
