Ons Jabeur vs Petra Kvitova – Match Predictions

These two players know each other very well as this will be their sixth match against each other. Kvitova has been dominant in the previous encounters, but Jabeur has proven she can play well at Wimbledon.

Petra Kvitova to win

Kvitova is definitely past her prime, but the fact remains that she is a two-time Wimbledon champion and that has been very dominant in the previous matches against Jabeur, often not allowing more than two games in a set to the Tunisian. Seeing the previous results and how good Kvitova plays from the baseline, it is very unlikely that Jabeur will find a response for that.

Over 22.5 games

This will definitely be a huge fight as both player eye this tournament as a chance to win a Grand Slam.  Jabeur is in better shape in general, but Kvitova is the one who is better on grass. This match will probably go in the third and decisive set and will go way over 22.5 games.
