Mladenovic Battling a Horrible Slump
Former doubles number one and singles number 10 Kristina Mladenovic arrived in Morocco with a tally of 1-9.
She had lost her opening round matches in nine of her last 10 events this season spread across ITF, WTA, and Challenger circuits.
Needless to say, it has been a horrible slump for the 29-year-old Frenchwoman. She has endured shocking losses at the hands of Magdalena Frech, Daniela Seguel, Anna-Lena Friedsam, Shuai Zhang, Erika Andreeva, and Belinda Bencic.
She is now ranked World No. 110 while on the doubles side of things, she is placed in the early 200s although, it may possibly be due to a lack of tennis there this season. Mladenovic has played in only three doubles events in 2022 – going the distance in the Paris Challenger with Beatriz Haddad Maia.
Her struggles are further evident from her first-round slogfest against the lucky loser Tessah Andrianjafitrimo in Rabat. Despite sailing high on experience and pedigree, she survived a scare with 6-3, 3-6, 7-6(9).

Diaz on a Roll
By contrast, Nuria Parrizas Diaz is having the best season of her career so far. She broke into the top 50 for the first time and is now ranked World No. 48.
She has also enjoyed a decent spell on the WTA Tour as she reached the semifinal in Monterrey, round two in Istanbul, Madrid, and Rome. And earlier in the season, the 30-year-old also reached the quarterfinal in Melbourne 2 and round three in the Australian Open (lost to Jessica Pegula).
Although Diaz is yet to win a singles title (and has a comparatively inferior pedigree than Mladenovic), the truth remains that she is in a much better form this year.
Last season, the Spaniard picked up two WTA 125 titles in Bastad and Columbus to kickstart her rise in the rankings. Since then, she has only gotten better with sights on bigger victories.
Diaz v Mladenovic Prediction and Tip
Diaz is the odds-on favourite here, there is no denying that. However, Mladenovic has the experience of playing in elite matches and that is something that can come in handy here. We cannot underestimate her chances here. On the safer side, this match may go to three sets.
Tip: Over 20.5 Games: 5/6 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
