Elina Avanesyan vs Elena Rybakina Preview

Elena Rybakina enters this contest with a strong 13-9 record against top-50 opponents in 2025 and a flawless 4-0 record in Wimbledon first rounds. 

Given her consistent performances on grass and Avanesyan’s recent struggles — including a lack of Grand Slam victories since Wimbledon last year — Rybakina is expected to have a comfortable path through this opening round.

Elina Avanesyan Form

Elina Avanesyan has struggled with recurring fitness issues over the past two years and still appears to be managing the effects of those setbacks. 

While there were signs of improvement earlier this season, her overall recovery remains a concern.

Avanesyan is currently on a four-match losing streak and has not won a match since Miami in March. She has failed to register a win at either Grand Slam this year, suffering first-round losses to Yulia Putintseva at the Australian Open and Anhelina Kalinina at Roland Garros.

Her Wimbledon journey began with a qualifying-round exit in 2023. Last year, she made it into the main draw for the first time and scored an impressive straight-sets win over Kalinina in the opening round before falling to Liudmila Samsonova in the second.

Elena Rybakina Stats

  • Current WTA ranking: 11
  • Career-high ranking: 3
  • Elo ranking: 9
  • 2025 season record: 29–12
  • Wimbledon first-round record: 4–0
  • Record against top 50 opponents in 2025: 13–9

Elena Rybakina Form

Elena Rybakina’s preparations for Wimbledon have been less than ideal, with both of her grass-court campaigns ending in quarterfinal exits. 

She began her swing at the Queen’s Club, where she fell to 37-year-old Tatjana Maria despite generating 12 break point opportunities and converting only two. 

The following week in Berlin, she suffered a frustrating loss to Aryna Sabalenka after failing to convert four match points.

While Rybakina has delivered consistent results throughout the 2025 season, her overall level has not quite lived up to the high standard she set in 2024. As a result, she has slipped just outside the top 10 in the rankings.

Nonetheless, Wimbledon remains her most successful Grand Slam. The 26-year-old has advanced to the second week in all four of her main-draw appearances at the All England Club, highlighted by her title run in 2022 and a semifinal showing in 2024.

Verdict

Given her strong form on grass and proven track record at Wimbledon, Elena Rybakina is widely expected to navigate this opening round with ease.
 
In contrast, Elina Avanesyan’s lack of match fitness and recent struggles make it difficult to envision a competitive showing. A straightforward win for Rybakina appears likely, with the total games potentially staying under 19.5.
