Our Donna Vekić vs Tkacheva, Mariia Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Donna Vekic outclasses Mariia Tkacheva 6-3, 6-2
Reason: Bookmakers listed Vekic as a massive favorite at -1200 against Tkacheva, who is 0-2 in two matches against the WTA top-100 in her career. Tkacheva’s lack of exposure to playing top-level competition will not help her in this match against Vekic, who has been a top-100 player on the tour for most of her career. Tkacheva could challenge Vekic for points in the early going, but the discrepancy in class will eventually dictate the outcome of this match.
