Prediction for the WTA Australian Open match, which will take place on January 19th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Taylor Townsend

Taylor Townsend is 26 years old and ranks 135th in the WTA. In the new season, she played three matches at three tournaments. In Adelaide, Taylor lost to Potapova and Anisimova, but in Melbourne, she was fortunate in the first round to meet Parry, No.107, with the same wild card as Townsend. The match lasted less than an hour, and Taylor won it in two sets, 6-1, 6-1. Townsend fired seven times and made three double faults, winning 86% of points on the first serve and 69% on the second. The receiving stats were 42%/78%, winners/unforced errors 23/8. Overall, she had quite a good match against Parry.

Ekaterina Alexandrova

Alexandrova had no problems in the first round of the Australian Open. The match against Bonaventure lasted less than an hour, and Ysaline took only three games. However, it's hard to say that Ekaterina had her best match. She made 20 unnecessary errors and 17 winners failing regularly. Alexandrova had five aces and six double faults, winning 69% of points on the first serve and 61% on the second. On the reception, statistics were 54%/67%.

Expert Betting Tips

As in the first-round match, Alexandrova should have no problems now. Townsend is no better than Bonaventure, who took only three of her games. Meanwhile, Alexandrova is still looking for her playing style. It is evident that the Russian is far from her peak form, but we expect more solid tennis and fewer faults in the second round.
