Both players have impressed recently, but Martincova has played a lot of tennis in the last few days. That probably catches up to her if this match goes long.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Zavatska in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"MaB44J9WS-FD9l88QUvp_Q\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1079465528\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'MaB44J9WS-FD9l88QUvp_Q',sig:'WrmM8wCTY_36qnfd_qCQOyacXs5ju0BppGpVIEZIzZ0=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1079465528',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Danka Kovinic vs Margarita Gasparyan<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Kovinic reached the Top 50 a few years ago but then struggled with both form and injury. She&#8217;s steadily improved this season, but she is still nowhere near where she was back in 2016. She has too much talent to stay outside the Top 100 forever, but right now she&#8217;s not quite at the same level as Gasparyan is.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Gasparyan in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"asN7t8kRT6JQ9xro3wI51g\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1170358009\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'asN7t8kRT6JQ9xro3wI51g',sig:'Pio4izDYxgB8Ytu9GGntG-oeKL0LuvxIh9xG0kGvlIk=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1170358009',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Timea Babos vs Pauline Parmentier<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Parmentier was very impressive in her first-round victory over Aleksandra Krunic. Babos was equally impressive, moving past Kirsten Flipkens in straight sets. Neither of these players are playing anywhere near their potential right now.
