Laura Pigossi v Ulrikke Eikeri Head to Head

These two haven’t played at any level over the past 10 years but did face off on the ITF circuit in 2011 and 2013. Both times, it was Eikeri who came away a winner – winning one on hard court and another on clay.

Pigossi Crushed by Bronzetti

Lucia Bronzetti is more than 60 places ahead of Pigossi but one expected the Brazilian to notch up some fight in the encounter. Sure, even we thought there would be under 20.5 games in the match, but definitely did not expect the kind of scoreline on show.

Because Pigossi went down 6-0, 6-2 in a mere 77 minutes as Italy notched up a 3-2 win over Brazil on day two of the competition.

Interestingly Pigossi did manage to break her opponent once in the match and that came when she was 0-6, 0-4 down in the encounter. From there on, she won another game on serve but Bronzetti eased to a win with another service break.

Can Pigossi shrug that result off as she now takes on a player who is currently 388th in the world and has never seen the top 200 in her career?

Eikeri’s Form Has Tapered off in Recent Times

Eikeri is one of those journeywomen on the ITF Tour who hasn’t featured too much on the WTA circuit. With 11 ITF titles in her career, however, she seemed to have done enough to raise hopes of a solid switch on to the WTA Tour as well.

Unfortunately for the player from Norway, her last title on the ITF circuit also came in 2017 and since then she has had her struggles maintaining her form.

It was in the following year, in 2018 that Eikeri managed her career-best ranking of 206th but that’s where things stalled for her. She ended the 2021 season outside of 300 and fell a further few places to finish 2022 ranked 388th in the world.

Coming up against Pigossi will be a bit of a challenge but the aging Eikeri does have experience by her side. Only trouble is, her opponent has been around for a reasonable time as well and could prove to be a handful.

Pigossi v Eikeri Prediction and Tip

With revenge on mind after having suffered a crushing opening defeat, Pigossi can be expected to come storming back and registering a win here. Straight sets too.
