Our Iva Jovic vs Mia Pohankova Prediction
The Difference Maker: The gap in talent and class cannot be so obvious in this matchup. Jovic is a legit top-20 player this year, while Pohankova ranks 193rd in the world and has limited appearances on the main tour.
What to Expect: Jovic annihilates Pohankova. Although she’s not a big server, Jovic should hold most of her service games while dishing massive damage on the receiving end of the serve, where she is elite. Jovic will secure double breaks in both sets to secure a comfortable win over Pohankova, who has never faced a top-20 player.
Fearless Forecast: Iva Jovic wins 6-2, 6-2
Our betting prediction for Iva Jovic vs. Mia Pohankova: Iva Jovic -6.5 games
