Cori Gauff vs Jessica Pegula Prediction and Betting Tips (14.02.2022)

Command Analysis

Cori Gauff

USA

Cori Gauff got off to an ambigious start in the new season. On the bright side, young American reached the semi-final of Sydney tournament. But her performance at Australian Open was disastrous - Cori was eliminated by Wang Qiang (2:6, 4:6) in the first round.

Gauff is currently at the 20th spot in the world rankings. One year ago, she reached the quarter-final of Dubai tournament. Now Gauff will try to defend ranking points for that result.

Jessica Pegula

USA

Jessica Pegula got off to a slow start of the current season. In two first tournaments at Melbourne and Sydney she was eliminated after first matches. However, American player managed to reach the quarter-final of Australian Open. But just like in the previous year, she is too inconsistent.

In the previous season Pegula, just like her opponent, reached the quarter-final of Dubai tournament. Looking at Jessica's performance on January, it seems doubtful that she will put up a successful performance.
