Command Analysis
Iga Swiatek
PolandCurrent form
In Cincinnati, Swiatek started with a not very convincing victory over Varvara Gracheva (6-0, 6-7, 6-2). One could see her slump during the second set, when she did not realize match points and "brought" a tie-break. In the second round, Iga did not allow herself such an inexplicable decline and confidently, in her usual style, won over Marta Kostyuk (6-2, 6-2).
Professional qualities
Šwiętek has an excellent technical arsenal, there are no weak points in her game. The only thing is that the Polish tennis player does not like when her opponents act as the first number, boldly taking the initiative into their own hands.
Current indicators in the tour
Over the entire season, including the Olympics, Šwiętek won 54 matches and suffered only six defeats. On hard, she has an impressive statistic of +24 -3. Interestingly, two of her three defeats on hard courts were to Russian tennis players Kalinskaya and Alexandrova. Perhaps today is Mirra Andreeva's turn?
Interesting facts for betting
- In the last nine matches on the tour involving Swiatek, the first set has never gone more than nine games.
Mirra Andreeva
Russian FederationCurrent form
Andreeva adapted well to hard courts and demonstrated solid play and results at her very first tournament. Mirra had a tough tournament draw in Cincinnati, but that didn't stop her from beating Navarro and Pliskova with a precise score of 2-0 in sets. The Russian started the third round match against Paolini unsuccessfully, but managed to gain aggression, started playing more boldly from the second set and took revenge on the Italian for her defeat in the Roland Garros semi-final (3-6, 6-3, 6-2).
Professional qualities
Andreeva has all the necessary skills to successfully play against any opponent on the tour. Perhaps, the only downside is that she is not the most convincing at the net.
Current indicators in the tour
Andreeva is a versatile tennis player, it is not surprising that she has solid results both on clay (+16 -5) and on hard (+10 -4). There was a decline only during the grass section of the season, when she failed to win either of the two matches she played. In the world rankings, Mirra is close to debuting in the top 20, currently occupying the 24th position.
Interesting facts for betting
- In Andreeva's four previous matches, no more than nine games were played in the first set.

1.48Tip and bets
Recently, Šwiętek has allowed herself two less than confident matches – she lost to Zheng Jingwen at the Olympics and lost a set to Gracheva in Cincinnati. Andreeva is clearly at her peak now, she has beaten three tough opponents, finding approaches to each of them. It is important not to let Iga seize the initiative from the very first rallies, Mirra is currently capable of playing boldly, taking the game into her own hands. With the right attitude, she is capable of avoiding a crushing defeat today.
Our prediction is Andreeva's victory with a handicap of (+6) games at odds of 1.74
Bet on total

Bet on the second set
It should be noted that in two of the four previous matches, Šwiętek had problems in the second set. With the same Gracheva, she allowed herself to fail in this segment, which we do not rule out this time.
Betting Tip - total games in the second set over 9.5 with odds of 2.67
