Elina Svitolina vs Diane Parry prediction and betting tips - May 30, 2024
Elina Svitolina
Diane Parry
In the second round of the French Open, a match will take place between Ukrainian Elina Svitolina and Frenchwoman Diane Parry. The match is scheduled for Thursday, May 30, at 12:00 Central European Time in Paris. Experts from Dailysports have provided their prediction for this match.
Elina Svitolina
Svitolina, after giving birth, is trying to return to her previous form and could rise in the rankings, where she is currently 19th, after the French Open. To do so, she needs to at least improve on last year's result — a quarterfinal finish.
In the first round, Elina overcame a tough opponent in Karolina Pliskova. The Ukrainian lost the first set but then triumphed in the next two.
Diane Parry
The 21-year-old Frenchwoman is just starting her professional career and has played half as many matches as her experienced opponent. In the first round, Parry fought hard to defeat compatriot Fiona Ferro in three sets.
Diane is close to matching her personal best at the French Open, but Svitolina might prove too tough for her. Interestingly, the two met just a week and a half ago in Strasbourg, where Svitolina won comfortably.
Interesting Facts and Head-to-Head Matches
- Svitolina hasn't won three consecutive matches since the Australian Open.
- Parry has only played six matches on clay this year, winning two of them.
- The only head-to-head match between these opponents was won by Svitolina.
Elina Svitolina vs Diane Parry Prediction
Svitolina is the favorite and should comfortably advance to the third round. Betting on Elina's victory with a -3 game handicap looks like a solid option.
