LiontipsMaria Sakkari vs Bianca Andreescu. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA US Open
Command Analysis
Maria Sakkari found a way into the Top-20, but she can't remain consistent throughout the whole season. Sometimes she puts up successful performance in one tournament, but in the next one fails miserably. For example, before US Open she performed great at Montreal, reaching the round of 16. But after that she was heavily beaten by Kerber in the first round of Cincinnati tournament (2:6, 2:6).
So far Sakkari is flawless at New York. She recorded three confident victories over Kostyuk (6:4, 6:3), Siniakova (6:4, 6:2) and Kvitova (6:4, 6:3). In the round of 16 Sakkari will try to get revenge on Andreescu for a defeat in the semi-final of Miami tournament (6:7, 6:3, 6:7). In the decisive set of that match Sakkari made two breaks, but failed to put up a confident performance on her serve and eventually lost the match on a tiebreak.
A winner of 2019 US Open Bianca Andreescu has a streak of nine victories in a row at New York. In the previous year Canadian player withdrew from participation in that tournament due to injury.
We should note that Canadian player got an easy draw in first three rounds of the current tournament. Golubic, Davis and Minnen were too weak opponents for Andreescu. Nonetheless, she lost one set to Golubic (7:5, 4:6, 7:5).
