Ons Jabeur v Vera Zvonareva Head to Head
This will be the third meeting between these two players, with the H2H currently hanging in the balance at 1-1. Their most recent encounter occurred on the clay of Bucharest in 2018, with the Tunisian comfortably advancing to the next round by winning 6-2 6-2.

Jabeur Back From Sydney Injury
Jabeur arrives in Dubai ready to play her first match since having to retire against Kontaveit in the Sydney quarter-final due to injury. This resulted in her having to miss the Australian Open. Thankfully for Jabeur, only a month after having to retire and she is back on the match court.
In Sydney, Jabeur reached the last-8, beating Sharma in the opening round 6-1 6-3 to set up a tie with a mouth-watering tie with Kvitova in the next round. The 27-year-old came through the encounter in straight-sets 6-4 6-4 to reach the quarters before having to retire.
Jabeur comes into Dubai as the home favourite and the crowd will be behind her playing just her second tournament of the year. There are no easy matches in such an action-packed draw. A win for Jabeur will set up a tie with an American, in the shape of either Gauff or Pegula.

Zvonareva Looking to End 3-Match Streak
Currently ranked 82nd in the WTA rankings, Zvonareva comes into Dubai as a wildcard in what is her 4th event of the year. The Russian has yet to win a match since her opening match of the year against Riske in Melbourne (Summer Set 1) which she won 7-5 6-3. Her progress was halted in the next round by Zheng, suffering a 3-set 5-7 6-3 6-4 defeat to her opponent.
Zvonareva then fell in the first round to Elise Mertens at the Australian Open 6-4 7-5 in a 1-hour 53-minute battle against the Belgian. Most recently, in St. Petersburg, Zvonareva narrowly lost out to Martincova 2-6 6-1 6-4 to suffer another opening round defeat.
The 37-year-old knows what it takes to beat Jabeur as she scored a 6-2 6-3 over the Tunisian at the 2015 Australian Open, however, there is no denying Jabeur has significantly improved since then and is now a much tougher opponent to beat.
Jabeur v Zvonareva Prediction and Tip
This tie is set for a high-quality battle, however, it is likely that 8th seed Jabeur will face little problems in navigating her way past Zvonareva to reach the next round based upon Jabeur’s current form being better than her opponent.
Tip: Jabeur to win in three sets: 3/1 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
