Lucia Bronzetti v Anna Blinkova Head to Head
Their only previous meeting came on the clay courts of Lausanne in 2021 with Bronzetti winning that encounter.

Bronzetti 3-2 in the United Cup
USA crushed Italy in the final of the United Cup last week but it must be quickly added that the runner-up side made it as far as the title-decider, much to the surprise of the onlookers.
Part of that success was down to Lucia Bronzetti’s performances as she carved out three singles win to go with two defeats.
What’s pertinent to note, however, is that Bronzetti’s victories came up against Laura Pigossi, Ulrikke Eikeri and Valentini Grammatikopoulou, players she was expected to beat given the huge difference in their rankings.
Bronzetti’s defeats said a lot too. She went down to Magda Linette and Madison Keys, both of which were one-sided defeats with a sum total of eight games won in those two encounters.
Can she resume things here with a solid showing against the qualifier?

Blinkova Makes it Through to the Main Draw with Ease
After falling in the second round of the Auckland Open last week, losing to Rebeka Masarova despite starting out a 4/6 favourite, Blinkova will hope to make a better fist of things here in Hobart.
And she has already had a couple of rounds here, having overcome Varvara Gracheva and Panna Udvardy in the qualifiers.
Blinkova overcame Gracheva 6-1, 6-1 before registering another straight-set win over Udvardy, dropping just five games in the process.
Interestingly, Blinkova had ended the previous season with a semifinal appearance in a WTA125 tournament in December, so will be hoping to continue with that kind of a showing here. Especially after having also won a WTA title in October despite starting out as a qualifier.
That showing should give her a lot of confidence coming into this one.
Bronzetti v Blinkova Prediction and Tip
Exhaustion from travel and having played across 10 days in United Cup, to go with Bronzetti’s struggles against opponents of note combine to have Blinkova as a favourite here. Expect the Russian to come through with ease.
