Oceane Dodin vs Jaqueline Cristian Prediction and Betting Tips (23.07.2021)

Command Analysis

Oceane Dodin

France

Seems like Oceane Dodin has finally gained an excellent game form in summer. After a Wimbledon French player played on two low prestigious ITF tournaments, got some match practice and approached the start of Palermo tournament in great shape.

In first two matches in Italy French player didn't lose a single set to Dulgheru (6:3, 6:2) and Diatchenko (7:6, 6:4). Oceane was not always consistent, but she was saved by her powerful serve.

Jaqueline Cristian

Romania

In 2021 Jaqueline Cristian is probably remembered by the tennis fans due to her great performance in Saint-Petersburg in the beginning of March. Back then, Romanian player managed to reach the quarter-final, starting from qualification. Jaqueline failed to repeat that success. On the next tournaments she didn't win a single match in the main draw.

Palermo tournament is already the most successful tournament for Jaqueline after Saint-Petersburg. In the first round Jaqueline beat Brancaccio in the difficult match (2:6, 6:3, 6:4). In the second round she recorded a confident victory over Zheng Qinwen (6:1, 6:4).
