An unseeded player will make their way into the last 32 of the Australian Open. Lucia Bronzetti faces fellow unseeded player Jaqueline Cristian in the second round of this outdoor hard court Grand Slam. Here's our match prediction.
Lucia Bronzetti caused a surprise in round one when beating 21st seed Victoria Azarenka in straight sets. That win has taken the Italian up to 62nd in the live rankings having started the tournament down at 76th.
The 26-year-old had lost in the first round here for the past two years. This is only her second time in round two of the Australian Open, the other being in 2022. Before this tournament, Bronzetti had lost three of her four matches this year.
Jaqueline Cristian is up to 67th in the live rankings after beating lucky loser Petra Martic in round one. A third set tie-break was needed to win that match after losing the middle one. Also aged 26, the Romanian has never reached the third round of a Grand Slam.
Before her first round win, she'd lost six of her last eight matches. Cristian leads Bronzetti 4-1 in previous meetings but the only one played on hard courts was won by the Italian. We tip Lucia Bronzetti to win this match.
