LiontipsAna Konjuh vs Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Ostrava
Command Analysis
In 2021 Ana Konjuh is trying to get back on top after a number of injuries. Croatian player recorded 40 victories in 60 matches. She recorded many victories in qualifying rounds, but she also reached the round of 16 at Miami tournament and the final of clay tournament at Belgrade.
Konjuh already played two qualifying matches at Ostrava. She recorded a victory over an obscure player, Zelníčková (6:4, 6:1). Then she managed to beat Bernarda Pera (7:6, 6:3). Konjuh has an advantage on match practice against Pavlyuchenkova.
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova is currently at the 13th position of WTA rankings. It is the best result in her career. Now she is aiming for the Top-10.
Pavlyuchenkova played her most recent official match at US Open. She achieved a decent result - reached the round of 16, where she failed to beat Karolina Pliskova (5:7, 4:6). Now she will play on indoor courts, where she is not always successful. Moreover, she never played at Ostrava before.
Tip and bets
In our opinion, Ana Konjuh should not be underestimated. Croatian player is in a great form now, she participated at Portoroz tournament in the previous week and played two qualifying matches at Ostrava. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova will play her first match after a long pause, so she is unlikely to put up a great performance in the first match of Ostrava tournament. We offer to place a bet on the underdog.
Our prediction - Konjuh to win with a handicap of (+4.5) games
We think that Russian player will need some time for adaptation, so we will see a long match. Konjuh also has some problems with consistency, but in some matches she is able to play accurate at her serve.
Our second bet is on total over 20 games
