LiontipsBarty vs Pliskova. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Stuttgart
Command Analysis
It is Ashleigh Barty's first Stuttgart tournament in her career. Before this season current 1st ranked player never participated in this competition. But despite that, Ashleigh had an easy adaptation.
In her first Stuttgart matchup she easily dealt with Laura Siegemund (6:0, 7:5). It became a bad tradition for Ashleigh to slow down in the second set. But she managed to step up and didn't let her opponent to prolong the game for a third set.
It's only second time when Karolina Pliskova managed to win two matches of one tournament this season. Before Stuttgart Pliskova managed to advance through two rounds at Australian Open.
But quality of Pliskova's game at Stuttgart is very questionable. Matches against Korpatsch (7:5, 3:6, 6:3) and Ostapenko (6:7, 6:4, 6:3) were going on for three sets and Pliskova made too many mistakes. Karolina's main advantage, her serve, is not so good now. Without it she's gonna struggle against world No. 1 player. Ashleigh have an advantage on head-to-heads: she won four out of six matches.
