LiontipsMarketa Vondrousova vs Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Chicago
Command Analysis
After a silver medal at the Olympics Marketa Vondrousova is not so successful on tour. Czech player achieved her best result at Luxembourg tournament, where she reached the semi-final and was beaten by an eventual winner, Clara Tauson (4:6, 6:2, 4:6).
Vondrousova started the Chicago tournament from the first round, which is surely an advantage over Pavlyuchenkova, who will start her way in the second round. Czech player recorded an easy victory over Tomljanovic, losing only three games to the opponent (6:2, 6:1).
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova will try to finish her most successful season ever in Top-10. Russian player is currently at the 13th position in the WTA rankings. In recent tournaments it became clear that it is hard for the Roland Garros finalist to keep herself in a good form.

Tip and bets
Opponents have even chances for a victory in this match. It is hard to argue with that, opponents are close to each other on class. Vondrousova already played one match at Chicago and put up a great performance. Pavlyuchenkova's performance was far from perfect at Ostrava tournament in the previous week, we think that Russian player is past her peak now, so decline is inevitable.
