S. Cirstea vs Danka Kovinic prediction

Cirstea had great success in her early ages before she got injured seriously. Cirstea hit 21st on ranking but now 127th. She had problem on abdominal strain and right shoulder injury in last 2 years. Cirstea is now trying to gain confidence that she played lower tournaments this year where she lost final games against out of Top-200 players. So, her 13-4 clay record can be tricky. But she did well job yesterday when she has beaten Jelena 2-0.

On the other hand, another young star Kovinic is 8-3 on clay this year.She lost only final this year in Istanbul last week. Clay is her favourite court. They met 2 times on clay,shared 1 victories by each. The last meeting was this year when Kovinic hit 0 ace and did 4 double faults. Kovinic was in a bad day, won only 6 of 21 1st serve points. Kovinic has beaten Vinci on 1st round. She hit 6 aces and won 35 of 50 1st serve points. Madrid conditions suits her. Another emotional story about this match is Jelena Jankovic ( lost game yesterday against Cirstea) is tennis idol for Kovinic. I believe that she will be more motivated.
