Fifth seed Anna Blinkova takes on world number 254 Alina Korneeva in the second round at the Merida Open. This will be their first career meeting and the winner will play Lucrezia Stefanini or Sara Sorribes Tormo next. Below is our prediction for this match.
Alina Korneeva had an assured start to her run in Merida, defeating Alycia Parks in straight sets. The win, only her second in the main draw of a tour event this year, snapped a two-match skid.
Korneeva has never progressed past the second round of a tour tournament. She lost in this round the two times she has advanced as far. The Russian has moved more than 20 places in the live ranking and is now placed 233rd in the world.
Anna Blinkova had to come from a set down to defeat Lesia Tsurenko in the first round. Their duel was halted prematurely, however, in the third set as Tsurenko was forced to retire with injury.
By the time the set was stopped, Blinkova had already sailed to a 4-0 lead. She has now won 12 times in her last 15 outings. Advancing to this round has seen her improve her record to 24-28 and moved her four places to 71st in the live ranking.

Our Alina Korneeva vs Anna Blinkova Prediction
Our prediction for Alina Korneeva v Anna Blinkova is for Blinkova to win. Blinkova had a shaky start to her campaign in Merida compared to Korneeva. Nonetheless, she should have enough to progress from this tie.
This is because she is the more experienced player, who has contested multiple tour finals and won. Though she is a strong hard-court player, Korneeva has never won more than one main draw match at a tour event. The lack of experience is most likely going to be her undoing here.
