Zidansek vs Jabeur: prediction for the Australian Open match
On January 17, Tamara Zidansek will face Ons Jabeur in the first round of Australian Open. Who will get a victory? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Tamara Zidansek
SloveniaOne year ago, Tamara Zidansek reached the third round at Australian Open, which is currently the best result in her career. It will be hard to repeat that feat, because Slovenian player got the World No. 2 player as the first opponent.
Zidansek failed to impress in two pre-Slam tournaments at Oakland and Hobart, winning only two qualifying matches against obscure opponents. She suffered defeats to lower-ranked Davis and Bonaventure.
Ons Jabeur
Tunisia2022 was the best season in Ons Jabeur's career and she fully deserved to be the World No. 2 player. Tunisian player made it to the 3rd round in the previous edition of Australian Open and she is looking to improve that result.
Prior to Australian Open, Jabeur played only one tournament, at Adelaide. She made it to the quarter-final, but her performance was underwhelming. Ons barely beat Cirstea (7:6, 6:1) and Kostyuk (7:6, 7:5) and then suffered a shocking defeat to Noskova (3:6, 6:1, 3:6).

Tip and bets
Jabeur is a clear favorite of the upcoming match and it's hard to argue with that. But Adelaide tournament showed that Ons is far from her perfect form: she had many unforced errors and gave away many games at her serve. We think that the World No. 2 will have a tough encounter against Zidansek.

All of Jabeur's 2023 matches had more than 18 games played. Both head-to-head fixtures were contested. We offer to place a bet on total over.
