She's also a good mover around the court.While clay remains her preferred surface, the 20-year-old has made tremendous improvements over the last year and plays quite well on all surfaces. Her serve however is a liability and can be exploited by her opponents.Sasnovich isn't the strongest of servers herself, so Osorio can make up for any shortcomings by doing well on return. The Belarusian's groundstrokes pack a bit more punch than her opponent's, but she also tends to misfire at times.Osorio has improved significantly since their last meeting and will fancy her chances this time as she continues her rise to the top of the game.Prediction: Camila Osorio to win in three sets.
