LiontipsElena Rybakina vs Elina Svitolina. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Eastbourne
Command Analysis
After the quarter-final of Roland Garros Elena Rybakina is participating on her second consecutive tournament on the grass. So far she is not looking successful on that surface.
In the previous week, at Berlin tournament Rybakina recorded a difficult victory over Shelby Rogers (2:6, 6:3, 6:4) and then was beaten in straight sets by Garbine Muguruza (4:6, 3:6). In Eastbourne Elena once again experienced some problems in the first match against a low-ranked Dart (6:2, 6:7, 6:4).
Elina Svitolina is following Rybakina's steps. She also played at Berlin tournament in the previous week. But on that competition Elina had to leave the tournament after the first round, where she took a defeat from Ekaterina Alexandrova (4:6, 5:7).
First round of Eastbourne tournament also was quite difficult for the Ukrainian player, but eventually claimed a win over Paula Badosa (4:6, 6:1, 7:6). Svitolina almost gave away her advantage to the opponent, but managed to clinch a win on a tiebreak of the third set.
