**Noskova Favored to Advance at Wimbledon After Dominant First Round**

**London, England** – Linda Noskova is the heavy favorite heading into her second-round Wimbledon match against Eva Lys, according to expert analysts. The match is set to take place at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.

Noskova, fresh off a dominant 6-2, 6-4 victory over Bernarda Pera in the first round, is carrying strong form into the encounter. The Czech player did not lose her serve in the first round and recently reached the semi-finals of the Bad Homburg Open, where she even served for the match against top seed Jessica Pegula.

While Lys managed to secure a spot in the second round by defeating Yue Yuan 6-4, 5-7, 6-2, this marks her first tour-level win on grass. This is her third win in a grand slam this season with her best win at the Australian Open where she reached the fourth round.

The pair have met once before, at the Prague Open last August, where Noskova was leading 6-2, 2-1 when Lys was forced to retire due to injury. This will be their first meeting on grass.

Sports betting analysts are predicting a straight-sets victory for Noskova.
