LiontipsVeronika Kudermetova vs Madison Brengle. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Melbourne
Command Analysis
Veronika Kudermetova had an unsuccessful final of the previous season, she won only three matches in three last tournaments of the year. A world No. 31 player also failed to put up a confident performance in the first match of a new season at Melbourne.
Russian player needed two tiebreaks to record a victory over Viktoria Kuzmova (7:6, 7:6). Both players put up a confident performance at the serve - in 26 games each of the opponents completed just one break. If Kudermetova will continue to serve well, she will have a good chance for a victory in the second round.
Madison Brengle ended the 2021 season at 59th position in WTA rankings. An experienced American player had an okay season, she won a title of Midland tournament.
In the first round of Melbourne tournament Brengle faced a Japanese player, Hibino. Just like Kudermetova, Brengle managed to beat her opponent in two tiebreaks (7:6, 7:6). Each of the opponents gave four games at the serve.
