2.21Tip and bets
Despite having lost all four previous encounters, bookmakers continue to list Daria Kasatkina as the favorite. We believe this odds arrangement is unjustified. The recent match against Osorio Serrano demonstrated that Amanda Anisimova is in great form and knows how to counter Daria's defense. We think it's worth betting on the underdog in this matchup.
