Camila Giorgi vs Ekaterina Alexandrova: Betting on Camila's Third Win

In the last 32 women's tennis tournaments in St. Petersburg #44 Ekaterina Alexandrova will meet with the WTA #30, Camila Giorgi. They have played with each other twice on tour. Unfortunately for the Russian, Camila has twice beaten Ekaterina on the hard court.

In 2022 Camila Giorgi played only one tournament, the Australian Open, where the Italian performed well. In particular, she got to the third round, knocking out the Russian Potapova, Martincova. Giorgi lost in two sets to the future winner of the first Majors, Ash Barty. Camila didn't have any chances. However, it can't be said that the Italian is in bad shape. Moreover, Giorgi has experience in winning indoor tournaments. In 2018 the Italian won a competition in Linz, Austria.

Ekaterina has a rich history of victories indoors at the ITF and Challenger level, but not the WTA. In contrast to Camila, the Russian has played three tournaments in early 2022: Adelaide, Sydney, and the Australian Open winning just one match against Shibahara in Sydney. In Melbourne, the Russian was weaker than Pera, losing 0:2.

A lot determines the Italian player as a favorite. Camila beat Ekaterina twice in her career, in Katowice, Poland, and Linz, Austria. No, Camila is not in bad shape. In Melbourne, the Italian went two rounds, losing only to the future winner and the first racket of the world. We have to agree with the line on the game. So we doubt that Alexandrova in St. Petersburg will overcome the first round.
