Belinda Bencic v Camila Giorgi Head to Head
If one includes the qualifiers of tournaments and the Billie Jean King Cup, there have been five previous meetings between these two players and Bencic leads 3-2. Discounting those two, it’s Giorgi who has a 2-1 lead over Bencic.
On hardcourt surfaces it’s 1-1, but it must be quickly added they last played in 2019.

Giorgi in Another Straight-Set Win
For all her supposed woes off the court, Giorgi has been impeccable on it and that was on display yet again in the second round as the Italian ran away to a 6-4, 6-3 win over Anna Karolina Schmiedlova.
Giorgi needed a tick over an hour and a half to overcome Schmiedlova, with her 78% first serve win percentage coming to her rescue. 23 winners and three aces helped too but with 34 unforced errors to boot, it was no surprise she was broken three times.
This win followed the 6-0, 6-1 near-double-bagel of Anatasia Pavlyuchenkova in the first round after Giorgi had had the opportunity to feature in just one match before the Australian Open.
Bencic will be a different kettle of fish obviously but as far as confidence goes, Giorgi looks to have most things going her way and she will back herself to make things difficult for her opponent.

Bencic Makes it 7-1 for the Season
Bencic needed to dig really deep but came away a winner in the end as she defeated Claire Liu in the second round.
Needing a court-time of an hour and 51 minutes, Bencic registered her seventh win of the season as she registered a 7-6 (3), 6-3 victory over her American opponent. It was Bencic’s serve that caused her issues, as the Swiss number one was broken four times in the encounter including twice in each of the sets.
In fact at one stage she was 5-2 down in the first set and Liu even had two set-points on her own set at 5-3 which Bencic staved off. She turned things around in the tie-breaker that followed but then was left struggling again as the two players traded four successive breaks of serves.
It was the fifth one for the set, in the sixth game, that proved to be decisive as Bencic came away a winner.
She has already won the Adelaide International title this year and will look to make this her seventh successive win.
Bencic v Giorgi Prediction and Tip
Bencic is 1/4 to win this and if she can find even bit of her serving rhythm back, she should win this in straight sets.
