Command Analysis
Current form
Haddad Maia played two great matches in Wuhan last week against Keys and Kudermetova. It seemed that Beatrice would be able to easily cope with Frech in the 1/8 finals after such victories, but instead there was an unexpected defeat (3-6, 2-6). In Ningbo, the Brazilian tennis player started right from the second round and barely overcame the resistance of Boulter (7-6, 7-5).

2.21Tip and bets
Bookmakers give a significant advantage to the Spanish tennis player in the upcoming game, given her recent successes. However, in Ningbo, Badosa is not playing so flawlessly, she has a hard time getting into the game, and does not immediately find the optimal pace. Haddad Maia managed to break Bulter resistance in the previous match due to her stable actions on the back line and is unlikely to leave the court without a fight today. We recommend a forecast for the underdog in this pair.
