Olga Danilovic vs Donna Vekic Prediction, Picks, Odds, H2H Stats, News - 5/31/24

Olga Danilovic and Donna Vekic will meet for the first time on Friday at Roland Garros, and the Serbian is listed as the favorite expected to advance in Paris. Ej’s Danilovic vs Vekic prediction for this match features odds at -110 and can be found below. 

Danilovic is 5 – 0 at the second Major event of the 2024 campaign, and the line setters like her chances to reach the fourth round in section 2 of the upper bracket. 

Donna Vekic has eliminated a pair of Ukrainian women to land in the third round, although her first opponent Lesia Tsurenko couldn’t finish their first-round clash exiting the French Open early. 

DANILOVIC VS VEKIC PREDICTION: SERBIAN PRIDE IN PARIS

• Prediction: Olga Danilovic -1.5 Games Handicap
• Best Odds: -110
• Bookmaker: Pinnacle
• Stakes: 3/10

Odds as of 7:00 am UK Time May 31, 2024. Odds may now differ.

Olga Danilovic showed me a lot of grit in her last match against Danielle Collins after losing the first set, and here she is in the third round. The Serbian battled back to take the win at +350 over Collins in the second round, and now she is favored to get past Vekic in the third round.

I will just cut to the chase and tell you the moment I saw Danilovic at -130 on the Moneyline, I knew I would be putting up a play on the handicap. When the line first came out, I saw -105 on the -1.5 and now that price is starting to rise.

I hope you get to this tip before the line moves to -2, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets there by morning. 

I watched every second of the Collins match, and when Dani won that first set I wondered what response Olga would have. Oh, she responded alright, and what an epic match it was.

A total of 35 games were played in the three-setter with Collins, and Danilovice earned a fifth win in Paris after cruising through qualifying.

Donna Vekic hasn’t even completed three sets at the French Open, as her first-round clash ended in the first set. Tsurenko exited the match down 6 games to 5 in the opening frame, and another Ukrainian was waiting in the second round. 

Marta Kostyuk went down in straight sets to Vekic as she broke the Ukrainian seven times en route to the second-round win.

I have Danilovic winning this match easily but I won’t settle for the juice at -130 on the Moneyline. I like my ROI so I would rather grab the handicap -1.5 Games on the Serbian to move on in France. My Danilovic vs Vekic prediction is for Olga to cover the -1.5-games handicap. 

OLGA DANILOVIC RECENT FORM

Danilovic is coming off an impressive win over Collins, and now she is favored in this match against Vekic. Playing the favorite role is something Olga gets handed to her infrequently, and I expect her to respond with a big win today.

Danilovic is ranked 125th on the WTA Tour, but her record on clay has been outstanding throughout her career. The Serbian native has won double-digit games on clay in six seasons on the tour, and she is 15 – 6 in 2024 on the dirt.

DONNA VEKIC RECENT FORM

Vekic is ranked 40th on the tour, and her clay record leaves plenty to be desired. Her record on clay is 47 – 49 over her career, and she is 3 – 3 on the dirt in 2024.

Vekic reached as high as 23rd on tour last season and has never won a title on this surface from her 7 titles on tour.
