Iva Jovic vs Emiliana Arango prediction
Jovic's serving game has not been commendable so far at the WTA 500 event. However, her high returns have yielded her plenty of break-point opportunities. She created 41 break-point opportunities in four matches, converting 23 of them.
Arango seems to have regained her touch in Guadalajara after a long and unsuccessful spell on the tour. She has barely been tested by her opponents, with all her wins coming in straight sets. The Colombian has a 79% win rate on her first serves.
Arango has had a more dominant outing so far in Guadalajara. However, given Jovic's superior overall play, she is expected to win the final and clinch her career-first title. With her strong return game, she can earn break points at any point in the match.
Pick: Jovic to win in three sets.
