LiontipsAlison Van Uytvanck vs Garbine Muguruza. Predictions and Betting Tips for Summer Olympics
Command Analysis
Alison Van Uytvanck is an unexpected guest at the Olympic Games' round of 16 in Tokyo. A victory in the first round over Jorovic (6:3, 6:2) was not so surprising, but a victory over Kvitova in the second round is a huge sensation (5:7, 6:3, 6:0). Alison was a huge underdog of that match by the bookmakers' choice.
After a loss in the first set Van Uytvanck didn't give up and keep on fighting. Kvitova's performance dropped in the second set and she was not physically ready for a long match.
Current No. 9 in the WTA rankings Garbine Muguruza is so far confirming the status of a favourite, unlike some other players in Top-20, who were eliminated from the tournament already.
Spaniard played most difficult match in the first round against Veronika Kudermetova (7:5, 7:5). Russian player had many chances to win at least one set in this match, but Garbine played accurately on crucial moments. In the second round Muguruza recorded a confident victory over Wang Qiang (6:3, 6:0).
