The victory could help the American regain some rhythm.Juvan, on the other hand, has enjoyed a stellar resurgence since September, capturing two WTA 125 titles and stringing together several deep runs. However, most of her recent wins have come against lower-ranked opponents.Her only Top 100 victory since June was against Taylor Townsend. Facing Parks presents another test of her ability to convert her Challenger success into main-tour results. The Slovenian's consistency may edge out Parks’ power, but expect a tight three-setter.Pick: Juvan to win in three sets.Alycia Parks vs Kaja Juvan betting tipsTip 1: Juvan to win.Tip 2: Total games over 21.5.Tip 3: Parks to win over 9.5 games.
