Over 21.5 Total Games
After the great show, both players put on in the first round of the French Open 2023, we expect to see a duel that will go on for many games. Despite her position in the WTA rankings, Clara Tauson is the favourite for most bookmakers. This will be one of the most evenly-matched duels of the second round, so we expect to see more than 21.5 games.
Total Sets: 3
Tauson won easily in the first round at Roland Garros 2023, but she is unlikely to perform in the same way against Fernandez. The Canadian player also showed some flashes of her best, so we expect a match that will be close to the limit and have a total of three sets.
Leylah Fernandez vs Clara Tauson Preview
Let’s check at the latest Leylah Fernandez vs Clara Tauson stats and preview the right WTA tennis prediction.
Leylah Fernandez
The Canadian tennis player has not found her best form this season. Last year she dazzled us with very good matches that took her to the 13th position in the WTA rankings. In a short time, she went from being a Main Seed to being ranked 49th.
In the first round of Roland Garros 2023, Leylah Fernandez faced the Polish tennis player Magda Linette. After 2 hours and 11 minutes, Fernandez prevailed 6-3 1-6 6-3. The Canadian player converted 4 break points but conceded 3.
Clara Tauson
The Danish tennis player has a good record of 24 wins and 9 losses, however, most of them have been in challengers. She even has a trophy playing on carpet, an unusual surface.
Due to her position in the ranking, Clara Tauson had to overcome the three qualifying rounds. So far she has done very well even winning in the first round with a comfortable 6-2 6-0 result. In this duel, she converted 6 break points and only conceded 1.
Fernandez vs Tauson Head to Head
Coincidentally, the two players are both 20 years old and had already met once before in a Grand Slam, but that was when they were still 15 years old and taking part in the Juniors Australia Open. On that occasion, Tauson won in straight sets. Since they started playing professional tennis, they have never met again, but since then it has been the Canadian player who has performed better.
