Jessica Pegula vs Lauren Davis – Match Predictions
Contents
As Jessica Pegula and Lauren Davis set their sights on a place in the Wimbledon second round, these are our predictions and tips for this match
Jessica Pegula to Emerge Victorious in Straight Sets
We would like to point out that Jessica Pegula has dominated Lauren Davis in recent years; she came out on top the last three times these players went up against each other, with her last two victories coming in straight sets. It’s also fair to note that Lauren Davis has struggled to find her stride these past few weeks; she crashed out of the first round in the last two tournaments she participated in. Given her recent struggles against Pegula Pegula, we are backing the current World number 4 to take this match in straight sets.
Lauren Davis to Cover +5.5 Games
Although we believe that Jessica Pegula will come out on top in straight sets, we don’t think she’ll cover +5.5 games today. For one, while Pegula won three of the last four skirmishes between these players, Lauren Davis covered +5.5 games in all of those meetings. It’s also worth mentioning that Jessica Pegula has had her fair share of struggles in recent months, having lost four of her last eight singles matches. On that note, we think Lauren Davis will do just enough to cover +5.5 games.
