Short odds in this match but I am still happy to take them .
E. Gagliardi without a win on WTA in a whole year . 8 straight first round losses but you can say this girl had tough luck ... just to name some of her opponents : Dulko , Azarenka , Dechy , Schiavone , Vaidisova . Not the people you want to play in round 1 of a tournament .
Vesnina in semis of tournament in Tashkent last week with a loss to Azarenka . She played decent tennis there but Azarenka played better than Elena and beat her in 2 straight sets .
They are playing in Russia so Vesnina will be even more motivated . She had 3 days off after that tournament so I do not think fittness will be the problem for Elena here .
