Tip and bets
In our opinion, Marketa Vondrousova is overrated by bookmakers in this match. Czech player failed to impress in Australia, she usually lose concentration during matches. Sorana Cirstea achieved a wonderful result at Australian Open and if she will keep that level of performance she should be able to fight for a victory in the match against Vondrousova. We offer to place a bet on the underdog.
Our prediction - Cirstea to win with a handicap of (+5) games
Since the start of the year Vondrousova played five matches and in three of them a set exchange took place. Two previous matches of Cirstea were also finished in three sets. We think that at least 20 games will be played in this match.
Our second bet is on total over 20 games
