LiontipsAnna Karolina Schmiedlova vs Emina Bektas. Prediction and bets on the WTA match Guadalajara
Command Analysis
Current form
Schmiedlova was remembered for her excellent performance at the Olympics, where she reached the semifinals, played in the match for third place with Iga Schwiatek, but lost (2-6, 1-6). She was unable to build on that success. Anna-Karolina moved to hard in the USA, played in Cleveland and New York, and lost to Tauson in the opening matches both times. Nevertheless, Schmiedlova successfully passed two rounds in Guadalajara, beating Garcia and Birrell.
Professional qualities
Schmiedlova's individual high-profile successes should not come as much of a surprise, as she is a very talented tennis player, but has never really blossomed. Anna, when in shape, has a great feel for the game, hits powerfully from the backhand on the back line, and consistently works out high-tempo exchanges.
Current indicators in the tour
At one time, Schmiedlova was the 26th racket in the world, but now she occupies only 87th place. On hard courts, she has rather modest results - 12 wins and 10 losses.
Interesting facts for betting
- Schmiedlova has played three sets in three of her last four matches
Current form
Bektas is far from being in the best shape, despite the fact that she made it to the quarterfinals in Guadalajara. In the hard court segment of the season, she won only three of seven matches. In Guadalajara, she was lucky with the tournament grid, as she had very weak opponents Arconada (7-6, 6-7, 6-1) and Pavlu (6-1, 6-1).
Professional qualities
Bektas does not have any real strong points in her game. All of the 31-year-old American's skills are average and there is clearly nothing special to surprise Schmiedlova with.
Current indicators in the tour
Bektas hasn't had any major successes this season, except for the less prestigious tournaments in Japan. On hard, she has 17 wins and 13 losses. In the world rankings, Emina occupies a modest 116th place.
Interesting facts for betting
- Bektas played tie-breaks in three of her last five matches

1.62Tip and bets
Bookmakers do not single out a clear favorite in this pair, which we do not quite agree with. In terms of her potential and technical arsenal, Schmiedlova is noticeably superior to the American, Anna-Carolina has clearly played out on local courts, and is capable of offering Bektas an unbearable pace when exchanging blows. We recommend a betting tip for the victory of the Slovak tennis player.
Our prediction is a victory for Schmiedlova with odds of 1.81
Bet on total
Throughout her career, Schmiedlova has not been consistent and often plays long matches. Thus, three of her four previous matches were played in three sets, which we do not rule out today.
The second bet is total over 21 games for 1.80
Tiebreak bet
It is worth noting that three of Bektas' last five matches involved tie-breaks, including two tie-breaks she managed to play in Guadalajara.
Betting Tip - tie-break in the match - yes with odds of 3.60
