Danielle Collins vs Jessica Pegula – Match Predictions
Contents
As both players go toe-to-toe with each other for the fourth time in their respective careers, these are our predictions and tips for this match
Jessica Pegula to Win in Straight Sets
We would like to point out that Danielle Collins hasn’t played in over a month; the last tournament she featured in was the Charleston Open, where she lost in the first round. Interestingly, Collins although Collins has fared well in doubles, she hasn’t had the same success in singles recently. The 29 year old has lost four of her last five singles matches, with three of those coming in straight sets. It may interest you to know that Danielle Collins hasn’t fared too well against Jessica Pegula in the past; she’s 0 for 3 against her compatriot, winning just one set in the process. On that note, we are backing Jessica Pegula to emerge victorious in straight sets.
Over 19.5 Total Games
It’s entirely possible for this match to end in two sets, and still go comfortably above the 19.5 games line. Although Jessica Pegula has fared relatively better than today’s opponent, it’s worth mentioning that her last three matches ended in maximum sets. As a matter of fact, all of Pegula’s last four singles matches went comfortably over 20 games. Bearing that in mind, this match will likely go above this line.
Danielle Collins vs Jessica Pegula Preview
We’ve established our Danielle Collins vs Jessica Pegula predictions, it’s time to look at both players’ form ahead of this competition.
Danielle Collins
The past couple of months have not been very pleasant for Danielle Rose Collins; as she lost four of her last five singles matches. The 29 year old hasn’t played since she won the Charleston Open doubles title alongside Desirae Krawczyk early last month; she’ll hope to have no fitness concerns ahead of this match.
Jessica Pegula
On the other hand, Jessica Pegula crashed out of the second round of the Italian Open a couple of weeks ago; she’s coming into this match on the back of two consecutive losses in singles. The current World number 3 will set her sights on a place in the second round of this tournament, and she’ll fancy her chances against Collins.
