Wimbledon Day 6 Women’s Predictions<\/h2>\n

Jelena Ostapenko vs Ajla Tomljanovic<\/h4>\n

Andrew:<\/em>
\nThe Latvian came through a really tight test against Daria Kasatkina in the last round and that match was always going to be decisive in her campaign. I like her chances to get through this match although Tomljanovic can beat most players on her day I just think that Ostapenko has found a really rich vein of form right now.
\nPrediction: Ostapenko in 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Jack:<\/em>
\nOstapenko, the hit-or-miss Latvian, is back to playing some of her best tennis. She won in Eastbourne in a stacked draw and squeaked passed Daria Kasatkina, one of the game\u2019s fiercest competitors, in her second round here. Tomljanovic has had some respectable wins this season but a more hit-than-miss Ostapenko will probably be a step too far. Ostapenko will go AWOL for a set and refocus to take the last two.
\nPrediction: Ostapenko in 3<\/em><\/p>\n

Damian:<\/em>
\nThe popcorn matchup of Ostapenko and Kasatkina certainly lived up to the hype, particularly in terms of sheer drama. Now that she\u2019s made it through, Ostapenko could be really dangerous here. She\u2019s done well at Wimbledon before and it looks like her all-or-nothing game suits both natural surfaces, perhaps it works even better on grass.
\nPrediction: Ostapenko in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
