Predicting this set of matches are Jack Edward, Jakub Bobro, and Jordan Reynolds. Who do you think will advance?<\/p>\n<h2>Wimbledon Day 2 Women&#8217;s Predictions<\/h2>\n<h4>Linda Noskova vs Dalma Galfi<\/h4>\n<p><em>Jack:<\/em><br \/>\nIf Dalma Galfi had been forced to come through qualifying, I\u2019m not sure we\u2019d be seeing her in the main draw. The Hungarian\u2019s game is far better suited to clay and, even then, her form has been spotty recently. Linda Noskova has the game to seize control of this one.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Noskova in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jakub:<\/em><br \/>\nNoskova has been decent on grass and doesn\u2019t get the toughest of draws to start against in Dalma Galfi. It will be interesting to see how the young Czech handles the moment.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Noskova in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jordan:<\/em><br \/>\nThis is a difficult match to call. Noskova is playing her first Wimbledon, and her grass court skills are still somewhat unknown. Galfi got to the second round last year, but it is Noskova who is having the better season by far, and is comfortably the higher ranked player. Expect Noskova to win what could be a tight match.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Noskova in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[cta id=591 type=cta]<\/p>\n<h4>Jaqueline Cristian vs Lucia Bronzetti<\/h4>\n<p><em>Jack:<\/em><br \/>\nThe difference in confidence will be clear here. Though Jaqueline Cristian\u2019s game is better suited on paper for this surface, Lucia Bronzetti is in far better form than the Romanian. Cristian\u2019s style of play could actually win her set but I fancy Bronzetti to get the win here given her performance in Bad Homburg last week.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Bronzetti in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jakub:<\/em><br \/>\nBronzetti is coming off of a strong run last week so in current form, should be a decent favorite against Cristian, who enters with a protected ranking.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Bronzetti in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jordan:<\/em><br \/>\nBoth players are making their first appearances in the Wimbledon main draw. But it is Bronzetti carrying the better form after her run to the final at the the Bad Homburg Open final. I see nothing to believe Cristian will have enough to counter the level Bronzetti has shown she Dan reach on grass.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Bronzetti in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"WJ9CO0xXQ-tnf7Lo3jwiNQ\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1472414012\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" 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:'WJ9CO0xXQ-tnf7Lo3jwiNQ',sig:'0Ed3l4fRuR6B002_kTA9AAgoy2AUKziJPL5qAj8RhrU=',w:'594px',h:'400px',items:'1472414012',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Katie Boulter vs Daria Saville<\/h4>\n<p><em>Jack:<\/em><br \/>\nDaria Saville has crashed down the rankings due to the injury she sustained late last year. Katie Boulter won\u2019t underestimate the Aussie\u2019s tennis, however. She knows she\u2019ll need to bring a decent serving performance into her first round to stave off Saville\u2019s game.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Boulter in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jakub:<\/em><br \/>\nBoulter has proven her grass pedigree time and time again. Saville will not beat herself but Boulter should win here and maybe pull off an upset or two in this draw.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Boulter in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jordan:<\/em><br \/>\nBoulter won her first ATP title in Nottingham a few weeks ago to catapult herself inside the Top 100, although she didn\u2019t win a match at her next two tournaments. Gavrilova only returned to action during the grass court season after nearly a year out with an ACL injury. Making a Grand Slam comeback against a home favorite will not be easy. Expect Boulter to win.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Boulter in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"KxKsJif4QaldXW3ZOsV9AA\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1509031405\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" 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:'KxKsJif4QaldXW3ZOsV9AA',sig:'4UwU7V7XYsC4mnShJNi2R3o-2oAI4Z_9DSyKubW74Ss=',w:'594px',h:'393px',items:'1509031405',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Aryna Sabalenka vs Panna Udvardy<\/h4>\n<p><em>Jack:<\/em><br \/>\nAryna Sabalenka may have slightly wobbled against Veronika Kudermetova but she actually ended that straight sets loss playing fantastically. She will likely have picked herself up and will be ready to dominate proceedings against Panna Udvardy, a player with very limited grass court experience.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Sabalenka in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jakub:<\/em><br \/>\nSabalenka has a difficult draw with Camila Giorgi looming in the second round and Anna Blinkova in the third but gets an easy opener her against Udvardy.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Sabalenka in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Jordan:<\/em><br \/>\nSabalenka has established herself as an all court player and one of the best players on the planet after winning the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/australian-open\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Australian Open<\/a> and semifinal appearances at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/wimbledon\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Wimbledon<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/french-open\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Roland Garros<\/a>. Her motivation may be even higher after being banned from last year\u2019s tournament as a Russian player. Udvardy got past the first round last year, but that won\u2019t be repeated.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Sabalenka in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday, Day 2 of the Wimbledon Championships, we will complete both the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s first rounds.
