Command Analysis

Cori Gauff

Gauff was unable to fight for a medal at the Olympic Games. In the quarterfinals in Paris, she was stopped by future finalist Donna Vekic (7-6, 6-2). Ahead is a return to hard. On this surface, Cory has an impressive statistic of 18 wins and five losses, with a title at the beginning of the season in Auckland. In Toronto, the world's second racket is the main favorite to win and, in the absence of Iga Swiatek, received the first seed.

Yafan Wang

Wang Yafan did not play at the Olympics, but moved to hard last week and made it to the second round in Washington. At that tournament, she defeated Pliskova (5-7, 6-3, 6-0) and put up some serious resistance to Azarenka (1-6, 7-6, 3-6). In Toronto, the Chinese tennis player has three matches under her belt, including the qualification, and all of her victories were won with an exact score of 2-0 in sets, including over Kenin in the first round of the main draw (7-5, 7-6).

2.65Tip and bets
Undoubtedly, the Chinese tennis player has already managed to get into the swing of things on hard courts and has gained a decent amount of playing practice. However, it is unlikely that Gauff will have a problem switching to a surface that is comfortable for her, especially since she flew to Toronto in advance and has already managed to actively practice on local courts. It is unlikely that Wang Yafan will be able to withstand the onslaught of the American's powerful blows today, and Cori is capable of working more consistently than her opponent on the back line.
Our prediction is Gauff's victory with a handicap of (-5.5) games for a coefficient of 1.61 in the Melbet bookmaker
Bet on total
In her last five victories, Gauff has not given up more than five games to her opponents. We do not think that Wang Yafan, who does not have a strong serve in her arsenal, can count on anything more.
The second bet is total under 19 games for 1.77 on the BC BETCITY line
Bet on the second set
In the last seven matches involving the American tennis player, there have not been more than nine games in the second set. Accordingly, we recommend another option for betting.
Forecast - total under 9.5 games in the second set with odds of 1.40
