Our Iva Jovic vs Renata Zarazua Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Iva Jovic grinds out a 6-4, 7-6 win over Renata Zarazua.
Reasoning: Expect Renata Zarazua to give Iva Jovic an acid test on Wednesday. Zarazua has won her last three matches and four of her first five this year. Jovic is a fantastic young player who can make a lot of noise at this year’s Australian Open. However, Zarazua has also displayed a sharp form in the first two weeks of the new season, emerging as one of the best returners on the WTA Tour with a 61 percent breakpoint conversions. Another reason why I believe Zarazua will make this a close match is her previous win over Jovic. The Mexican topped the youngster 6-4, 6-2 in the final of the 2024 ITF Tucson.
Our betting prediction for Renata Zarazua vs. Iva Jovic: Renata Zarazua +4.5 Games
