Bernarda Pera v Lucia Bronzetti Head to Head
They played twice and the score is tied 1-1. Pera won a match many years ago on clay with the Italian winning their most recent one in 2021. It was played in Portoroz on hard courts.

Drop in Form for Pera Lately
Bernard Pera opened the year well in Australia but her last two outings have been both defeats. The American turned her career around last year with a good year posting 37 wins, the most since 2019. Her start this year made it look like it would continue but her form has since dropped and her current score is 5-6.
Playing in Indian Wells should give her a chance to get back to winning ways on home soil. Her best result here came in 2019 when she made the second round and she’ll be hoping to do that again. Motivation should be high, especially as she’s facing a player who won their most recent match.
She’s an aggressive player by trait with a very good forehand but also quite streaky. Sometimes she simply doesn’t have it and she fails to win those matches, or even make them competitive.
A lot will depend on how she feels on the day but if she can get her serve and forehand to work, she should have plenty of short balls to attack her opponent. It will be tough but being being to play main draw Indian Wells tennis should be motivation enough.

Six Straight Losses for Bronzetti
Lucia Bronzetti scored her most recent win on January 7th which means she’s winless for two months. It’s not like she didn’t play, she did but simply couldn’t win a match. Six straight losses for the Italian who is a solid player who battles for every point so this is a bit surprising.
Bronzetti isn’t one with a heavy game and she won’t dictate the tempo against many players but she’s capable of getting many balls back and even attacking from the counter. It’s not the type of player you want to play, especially in Indian Wells.
She’s a solid player on hard courts but never made it to the main draw of the Indian Wells. She played in the qualifiers last year but lost in the second round which makes this her main draw debut. It’s tough ask but she’s beaten Pera in the past.
The question for Bronzetti is how well her confidence is after all those losses. Even her most recent outings didn’t show too much promise but playing Pera is a good matchup. If she can get her opponent to misfire often, she’s in good shape.
Pera v Bronzetti Prediction and Tip
It’s a tricky one to call because I could see this one going three sets. I lean towards Pera because she’s at home and has the heavier game but both haven’t won in a while.
Tips:
- Moderate Risk Tip: Three sets in the match: 6/5 (Click Here to Bet with 888Sport)
- High Risk Tip: Pera to win in three sets: 3/1 (Click Here to Bet with 888Sport)
