LiontipsAnett Kontaveit vs Kristina Mladenovic. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Roland Garros
Command Analysis
That year became the end Anett Kontaveit's failures. For two years in a row Estonian player was leaving the tournament in the first round.
Her first match against Viktorija Golubic was pretty intensive (6:7, 7:6, 6:0). It was a battle of characters in first two sets. Eventually Anett turned out to be stronger and her opponent just gave up in the third set.
Kristina Mladenovic was also quite unsuccessful at Roland Garros for the last few years. Only once in last three years she managed to get past the first round.
In the first round Mladenovic played against a tough opponent, Schmiedlova. Slovakian player was a bookmakers' favourite in that match, but Kristina once more proved that it is dangerous to underestimate her. We saw a close battle only in the first set (6:4, 6:0).
Now Mladenovic will play against Kontaveit, who is an uncomfortable opponent for her. All four head-to-head matches ended with a victory for Estonian player.

Tip and bets
Kontaveit never lost to Mladenovic, but every head-to-head match was heavily contested. Opponents had to play tiebreaks in all of four fixtures. We think that Estonian player won't be able to crush her opponent too hard, so we offer a bet on plus handicap for the underdog.

In all of four head-to-head matches opponents played for at least 21 games. We don't think that players will be able to decide the winner in a short time.
Our second bet is on total over 20 games
