Tiphanie Lemaitre vs Oceane Dodin Tips

Though both players have won once in their last five outings, I fancy Dodin to win. In her last two matches she won one and lost 2??'1 to higher-ranked Parks and took one of the sets to a tiebreak.

Massive difference in WTA ranks. Lemaitre is 348th ranked whereas Dodin is 818th. To me it looks to be a closer match than the odds suggest, and Lemaitre can nick it.

Tiphanie Lemaitre is outside the top 200 of the world rankings. The younger French player lost 4 of her last 5 matches across all competitions.

Dodin meets Lemaitre in the first round in Limoges. It should be an interesting duel between two compatriots. Dodin is coming off a 2-1 loss to Alycia Parks in the round of 16 at the Angers tournament. Both players have recorded three wins and four losses in their last seven matches. Two of Lemaitre’s last four defeats have come after a deciding set.

Oceane Dodin was quite good before, but nowadays she is terrible and she is not even in the top 800 in the world. I think we can bet on Tiphanie Lemaitre. Dodin has only ten matches this season and she lost five of them. Lemaitre has more than 70 matches this season and she won 44.

Huge difference in terms of quality between these two tennis players. Oceane Dodin is a hard-court specialist and the absolute favourite to win this match.

Dodin comes here after she lost the first set in 6 of her last 10 matches in all competitions (all on hard), including 5 first-set losses in her last 6 matches. Lemaitre comes here after she won the first set in 6 of her last 10 matches on hard. At these odds, I will try her to win the first set.
