One of the WTA's rising stars will be in action on Thursday, when Veronika Podrez, who is just 19 years of age, will take on the much more experienced Elisabetta Cocciaretto. Often, experience counts for plenty, and the early market certainly expects the extra experience of the Italian player to pay here, though we shouldn't discount Podrez simply because she's younger and less experienced.
The teenager has looked in fine shape in Rouen, winning each of her three matches in straight sets, and let's face it, she looked like a woman on a mission when defeating former tournament winner Sloane Stephens on Tuesday. In contrast, Cocciaretto dropped a set against a much lower-ranked player during the first round, so betting on the Ukrainian to, at the very least, avoid a straight-set defeat, looks like a great move at +115.

Our Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs Veronika Podrez Prediction
Sure, Elisabetta Cocciaretto is ranked markedly above Veronika Podrez, and on that basis, you may expect the Italian to win this match with ease, but tennis doesn't always work like that. The young Ukrainian is an improving player, and on recent evidence, she has the talent to make a significant climb in the rankings. She's won each of her three matches in Rouen in good style, beating a former tournament winner in straight sets during the previous round, which tells us that she can compete against a higher-ranked player such as Cocciaretto.
Our Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs Veronika Podrez Pick: Veronika Podrez +1.5 Set Handicap.
