On the eve of the start of the major, Uchijima played two pre-slam tournaments in Brisbane and Adelaide. She failed to win any of the matches in those competitions, although her opponents were serious – Krueger and Bencic. In the first round of the Australian Open, the Japanese tennis player played against Magda Linett, was an obvious underdog in that match, but was able to make a sensation, beating the Polish representative in three hard-fought sets (4-6, 6-2, 7-6).

Uchijima is distinguished by her agility, speed of movement and endurance. However, she clearly lacks power in her strikes, and her serve is not particularly threatening.

2.24Tip and bets
In our opinion, there is no point in expecting any intrigue in this match. Uchijima has no component in her arsenal in which she would be superior to Mirra. Moreover, the Russian tennis player clearly demonstrated in Brisbane that she is perfectly prepared for the season, and her victory over Buzkova also tells us this.
Our prediction is Andreeva victory with a handicap of (-6.5) games with a coefficient of 1.62

Mirra has won all her victories this season with a precise score of 2-0 in sets, which we expect to happen this time as well. Uchijima does not have a more or less powerful first serve to take more than five games.
