LiontipsPolina Kudermetova vs Miriam Bulgaru. Prediction and bets on the WTA Montreux match
Command Analysis
Current form
Polina was in good shape for the start in Montreux. The day before, Kudermetova had distinguished herself in the final of a less prestigious tournament in Oldenzaal, Holland. In the first round, she had a tough opponent, Chloe Paquet. The match lasted two days. In the end, in three sets, only in the decisive tie-break did the Russian tennis player snatch victory (6-4, 2-6, 7-6).
Professional qualities
Kudermetova works well on the back line, she has a good technique in her arsenal. However, Polina's serve often lets her down, she looks especially unconvincing on the second serve. Thus, with Paquet, one could see eight double faults at once.

Kudermetova has obviously gained good form now, she has been playing on clay for the second week in a row, and quite successfully, even though the level of her opponents is not the most serious.
