Caroline Dolehide is known to be an aggressive player who hardly gives her opponents space when she has the momentum. She thrives on her powerful serve-and-volley style and can hit fast forehands from the baseline, often catching her opponents out of position.

On the other side of the net, Avanesyan will offer a proper defense, as she adopts a counterpunching style that uses her opponents' pace against them. With Dolehide trying to hit winners, Avanesyan can put up a strong defense through her effective court movement and footwork.

With contrasting playstyles and their balanced head-to-head account, this fixture promises to go the distance, as both players will put on their best. Based on experience and titles won, alongside the clinical aspect of her game, Dolehide is expected to move into the next round, but not without a fight from Avanesyan.

Pick - Caroline Dolehide to win in three sets.
