Simona Halep vs Danielle Collins Prediction and Betting Tips (12.08.2021)

Command Analysis

Simona Halep

Romania

In the first part of the season Halep couldn't achieve good results and got a calf injury. It happened in May, so she missed Roland Garros and Wimbledon. After that Romanian player dropped out of Top-10 and is currently on a 12th position in the World rankings.

Halep won the Montreal tournament in 2016 and in 2018, but now the defending of that title is under question. Match against Collins will be the first one after a long break, so we can't say, whether Halep will put up a good performance.

Danielle Collins

USA

Collins is having a consistent season so far. American is playing on the same level, so she is holding on to her position in Top-30 of the world rankings. She is currently on the 28th position.

Collins won her first title of the season in the end of July, when she became the winner of Palermo competition. USA representative didn't stop after that and won the tournament in San Jose. She beat Daria Kasatkina in the finat (6:3, 6:7, 6:1).

Collins started at Montreal with a victory over Jil Teichmann in the first round (4:6, 6:1, 6:3).

Tip and bets

2.02Halep to win

Despite the lack of match practice, we think that Halep is the favourite. She always played great in Montreal and is holding the title since 2016. Even without match practice she is able to put up a high-class performance.

Also Collins will play for the second week in a row. American player is probably exhausted now, so she is unlikely to record a victory here.

Our prediction - Simona Halep to win
