Wimbledon Day 2 Predictions<\/h2>\n

Elina Svitolina vs Magda Linette<\/h4>\n

Damian:<\/em>
\nSvitolina had a great run at Wimbledon last year with new-found aggression and flatter hitting. Things have been a little up and down for her of late, but Linette isn’t particularly dangerous and the Ukrainian should be making her way past this matchup.
\nPrediction: Svitolina in 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Jordan:<\/em>
\nThese two are both happy to grind our results and will make each other work hard. But Svitolina is a better player on grass. Her increased firepower since returning from maternity leave will also help her to hit through Linette in this matchup.
\nPrediction: Svitolina in 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Manuel:<\/em>
\nSvitolina is a former two-time semifinalist at this Slam, showing how capable she is on the surface. Last year, she even beat Iga Swiatek on her way; while such a run will be very hard to repeat, she should be able to win this opening match against a tricky opponent in Linette.
\nPrediction: Svitolina in 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Liudmila Samsonova vs Rebeka Masarova<\/h4>\n

Damian:<\/em>
\nSamsonova can go hot or cold in the span of seconds and you never really know what’s going to happen. But on grass, the margins get a little finer for her style. Masarova, on the other hand, seems far off her headline-making 2023 form right now.
\nPrediction: Samsonova in 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Jordan:<\/em>
\nSamsonova is capable of being a dark horse at Wimbledon if she finds her game, which is a great fit for grass. She showed some of that quality during her run to the title in \u2018S-Hertogenbosch a few weeks ago. Her blistering power is likely to be too much for Masarova to handle.
\nPrediction: Samsonova in 2<\/em><\/p>\n

Manuel:<\/em>
\nSamsonova won the title in Den Bosch, showing a very good level on this surface. While she couldn’t maintain it in subsequent tournaments, she looks like someone who can make a run here at Wimbledon and should easily win this opening round.
\nPrediction: Samsonova in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
