LiontipsMadison Keyes vs Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Indian Wells
Command Analysis
2021 season is not the best one for Madison Keyes. A former World No. 7 player recorded only 11 victories in 25 matches, she is currently only at 50th spot in the WTA standings.
Keyes managed to interrupt her string of six consecutive victories at Indian Wells. She recorded a victory over Kaia Kanepi (6:0, 7:5). In the first set Keyes completely destroyed her opponent. Though, second set turned out to be much harder for the American player, she had to come back from behind and she managed to do so only due to a terrible performance by the Estonian player at her serve.
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova is still hoping to finish the current season at Top-10, but most recent tournaments were unsuccessful for the Russian player. Pavlyuchenkova is currently at the 13th position in WTA rankings.
Pavlyuchenkova will start the Indian Wells tournament in the second round. In two most recent tournaments Russian player won only one match: she recorded a victory over Konjuh (7:6, 6:1) at Ostrava. She was eliminated from this tournament by Martincova (6:7, 6:7) and then Pavlyuchenkova was beaten by Vondrousova (3:6, 2:6) at Chicago. We should note that in 2017 Pavlyuchenkova reached the quarter-final of Indian Wells tournament.
