LiontipsAnastasia Gasanova vs Greet Minnen. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Prague
Command Analysis
Anastasia Gasanova had two successful tournaments in 2021. In the beginning of the year at Abu-Dhabi she reached the round of 16, starting from qualification. She also reached the quarter-final of home tournament at Saint-Petersburg. After that Russian player failed to repeat that success.
In Prague Gasanova again started her way from qualification and was beaten in the decisive match by Burrage (1:6, 1:6). But Russian player still made it to the main draw as a lucky loser and she didn't disappoint. In the first round of the tournament Anastasia beat Havlickova in three sets (6:2, 4:6, 6:4).
Belgian player Greet Minnen is trying to get into the Top-100 for the couple of years now, but so far she is not successful in that task. She is currently only at the 122th position in the WTA rankings.
Minnen's best result of that season is the quarter-final of Lyon tournament. In Prague Belgian player started her way with a win over Gatto-Monticone (6:0, 4:6, 6:1). Throughout the season Greet is lacking consistency. She usually loses concentration during the match, for example, she gave away the second set in the first round of Prague tournament.
