Suzan Lamens vs Ekaterina Alexandrova Tips

Ekaterina Alexandrova is in good form 9-3 in the past 12 matches and she can win today with Suzan Lamens 4-6 in the last 10 matches.

Despite starting as an underdog, Lamens crushed Jovic in the first round with a convincing 6-1, 6-1 victory. She recently reached the quarterfinals in Hertogenbosch, demonstrating strong form on grass. Alexandrova has lost two of her last five matches on grass and has struggled at Wimbledon in the past, being eliminated in the second round twice by Osorio and Friedsam.

Suzan Lamens only dropped two games in beating Iva Jovic in straight sets in round one, and I am tipping she can upset the world number seventeen, Ekaterina Alexandrova. The Dutch woman is an aggressive player and will take the game to the Russian. My tip is she has the power to come through this match by two sets to one.

Lamens should have at least a 50 percent chance to keep this six games handicap. The win in the first round was a convincing 6-1, 6-1, albeit against a 17-year-old rising star ranked 89.
