Donna Vekić vs Jessica Pegula Prediction: Jessica has the edge

Jesica Pegula will square off against Donna Vekic in the opening round of the ATP Wimbledon. The world number 9th looks set to make it to the finals this time after losing to Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals of the Roland Garros earlier this month. Dona Vekic on the other hand couldn't get past the round of 32 in the Eastbourne Championship. She will hope to last longer in this competition.

Donna Vekic has maintained an average form in recent times. In her last 5 games, she has 3 wins and 2 losses. Last time out she lost (0-2) to Petra Kvitova and her stats were: 2 Aces, 1 Double fault, 27/41 first serve points won, 6/14 second serve points won, 0 break points converted, 44 points won in total.

Jessica comes into this better on form and record. In her last 5 games, she has 4 wins and 1 loss. That loss was against world number 1 Iga Swiatek in the quarter finals of the Roland Garros. In that match she managed 2 Aces, 1 Double fault, 25/43 first serve points won, 12/32 second serve points won, 6/11 break points saved, 1 breakpoint converted, 55 points won in total.

These two players have no head to head record.

I can only see this going one way and that's Jessica's.
