LiontipsIga Swiatek vs Daria Kasatkina. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Australian Open
Command Analysis
Iga Swiatek reached the round of 16 at Australian Open two times in a row. In the current edition of the tournament Polish player is only one step away from this result.
So far Swiatek is looking almost flawless at Melbourne. Dart and Peterson were beaten in straight sets. Nonetheless, we should note that in each of those matches Swiatek lost one game at her serve.
Daria Kasatkina got off to a wonderful start of 2022 season. Russian player reached semifinals at Melbourne and Sydney tournaments before the Australian Open.
Kasatkina retained her level of form for two first matches of the Grand Slam tournament. In the first round she beat Vogele (6:3, 6:1). After that she bagged another confident victory over Linette (6:2, 6:3). Now Kasatkina is approaching a much more difficult challenge. But in the previous season, she managed to beat Swiatek (4:6, 6:0, 6:1) at grass tournament in Eastbourne.
Tip and bets
Swiatek is an overwhelming favourite of the match by the bookmakers' choice. Polish player looked flawless in first two matches of the tournament, she dominated over her opponents and so far everything is going great for her. Kasatkina plays defensively, so it won't be an easy match for her. But Russian player is also in a great form and she managed to beat Swiatek in the previous season. We think that Russian player is good enough to avoid a blowout.
