American tennis player Francesca Di Lorenzo is set to face Russian Valeria Savinykh in the first round of the Palermo tournament on July 19th, 2021.

Di Lorenzo, currently ranked 161st in the WTA rankings, has been struggling recently. Her last match ended in a loss to Swiss Stephanie Fegele in the first round of her last tournament in Lausanne (6/3, 2/6, 2/6). Prior to this, she managed to reach the quarter-finals only at the futures tournament in Bonita Springs.

On the other hand, Savinykh has been in impressive form. She recently won her first trophy in 5 seasons at the tournament in Calvi. The Russian is currently ranked 196th in the WTA rankings and has participated in 39 matches this year, winning 24 of them. Her last match was the final of the tournament in Nur-Sultan, where she lost to Mariam Bolkvadze (6/4, 3/6, 2/6).

This will be the first meeting between Di Lorenzo and Savinykh. The match start time is 11:00 (MSK), and odds for Savinykh's victory are 2.86 according to 1xStavka.

Savinykh's recent form and experience suggest that she may handle the struggling American. However, tennis is an unpredictable sport, and anything can happen on the court. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how this match unfolds.

It's worth noting that Di Lorenzo's current world ranking in tennis can vary frequently, so it's recommended to check the latest WTA rankings for the most up-to-date information.
