THE PREDICTION

Fifth seed Maria Sakkari got her Wimbledon campaign underway with an assured straight-sets victory over Zoe Hives on Tuesday in one of the matches delayed by rain on Monday. The 26-year-old reached the semi-finals of two Grand Slams last season, losing to both eventual champions in Barbora Krejcikova at Roland-Garros and Emma Raducanu at the US Open and she still owns just one WTA title from the 2019 Rabat Open. World number 112 Viktoriya Tomova grabbed a big upset in her first Wimbledon appearance since 2018, where she also reached the second round, by ousting a resurgent Daria Saville in three sets. The Bulgarian will be a tough opponent for Sakkari on grass after reaching the quarter-finals of the Eastbourne International last week and three sets would not be a surprising scoreline come the end of this clash on Wednesday, Backing Sakkari to win outright is the suitably cautious pick.
