Tip and bets
Dodin is a favourite of this match in bookmaking companies. We think that French player will confirm that status. Diatchenko rarely plays on clay in the recent years, in the current season she won only one match on that surface. Dodin gained match practice on some low-prestigious clay tournaments and put up a great performance in the first round at Palermo. We offer to place a bet on the favourite.
Our prediction - Dodin to win
Diatchenko rarely leaves the court without a fight, even when she loses. Dodin usually loses concentration during the matches, especially when her serve is not so successful. We offer a bet on total over.
