🔍 Match Breakdown

Cristian is riding a wave of momentum and seems right at home on indoor clay. Her aggressive shotmaking and improved movement have allowed her to dictate matches with confidence. Against Parry, whose game relies heavily on variation and rhythm, Cristian’s flat hitting and relentless tempo could prove overwhelming.

Parry holds a win in their most recent meeting (Miami 2024), but Cristian leads 2–0 on clay. Unless the Frenchwoman rediscovers her top level quickly, she may struggle to handle Cristian’s consistency and depth.

🔮 Prediction

Pick: Jaqueline Cristian to win in straight sets

Cristian’s form, court familiarity, and H2H clay advantage make her the clear favorite. Parry’s decline in confidence and lack of match rhythm only tilt things further in the Romanian’s favor.
