Fourth seed Clara Tauson and Jaqueline Cristian rekindle their rivalry this week when they meet in the second round in Strasbourg. They have faced off six times previously, most recently two seasons ago. As four of Tauson’s last five matches ended in defeat, the prediction for this will drift towards Cristian.
Tauson arrives for her second appearance in Strasbourg in poor form. The Dane, who has had consistency issues this year, hasn’t just managed one win in five fixtures; she’s also lost three straight matches.
With this form, she could be in line for another early exit in this event. Tauson, who sits 20th in the live ranking, lost in Rome last time out as she made her season debut on clay.
Cristian defeated Tauson when they last met; that win seeing her tie this series at 3-3. With her strong start to the week, she will fancy her chances of winning again in this fixture.
Cristian, who is making her main draw debut in Strasbourg, was in dominant form in the opening round. Facing off with the qualifier McCourtney Kessler, the Romanian lost just two games as she won her 14th match of the season.
Despite the win, the 27-year-old has dropped seven places to 40th in the live rankings.
