LiontipsAryna Sabalenka vs Sloane Stephens. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Montreal
Command Analysis
Looks like Sabalenka put up her best performance at the Wimbledon, because she didn't have enough energy left for the Olympic Games. At Tokyo Sabalenka suddenly lost to Donna Vekic (4:6, 6:3, 6:7). It happened at the start of the tournament, everyone was shocked, because Belarusian player was one of the main golden medal contenders.
We should note that this season is not the best one for Sabalenka. She won a few titles, but only on low-prestigious tournaments. She is not so successful on Major ones. The only exception is Wimbledon, where Sabalenka reached the semi-final.
Stephens is on a shaky form now. American player experienced some problems in the first round of Montreal tournament. She needed to play three sets for a victory over Dayana Yastremska. Moreover, she barely avoided a bagel in the second set (6:4, 1:6, 6:4).
Sloane is extremely inconsistent during this season. That's why she can't achieve good results and, as a result, she dropped to the 56th position in the world rankings, despite being a former World No. 3.
Tip and bets
Stephens didn't impress in the first match. With a performance like that she won't go far on that tournament. American player barely avoided defeat in the match against Yastremska, so it will be extremely difficult for her to put up a fight against Sabalenka.
We think that Stephens won't be able to cause problems against the favourite. Aryna Sabalenka should get the victory with ease.
Our prediction - Aryna Sabalenka to win with a handicap of (-4,5) games
We are not expecting a resistance from Stephens in this match. American player is just not ready for that. In the previous match she completely failed the second set, so she won't have many chances to avoid a beating.
Our second bet is on total under 20,5 games
