Command Analysis
Viktoriya Tomova
BulgariaCurrent form
Tomova played a tournament in Tokyo at the end of October. In that competition, Victoria beat Victoria Kudermetova in the first round, but then lost to her upcoming opponent Diana Schneider. The Bulgarian tennis player has played one match indoors this season.
Professional qualities
Tomova is 29 years old and has shown progress on hard courts in the last three seasons, albeit very slowly. She remains a typical clay court player. She prefers long rallies on the baseline. On fast surfaces, she has a harder time, as she does not always have enough speed and power in her exchanges. Her forehand is quite reliable, but her penetrating backhand often lets her down, especially when she has to react to a low bounce and a quick response from her opponent.
Current indicators in the tour
Tomova is currently ranked 55th in the world. Previously, she was in the top 50. This season, the Bulgarian tennis player has not won a single trophy, but she has played in one final - on clay, she reached the final at the tournament in Valencia. In the decisive match of that competition, she lost to Ann Li.
Interesting facts for betting
Indoors, Tomova has only one win in her last five matches.
Diana Shnaider
Russian FederationCurrent form
Schneider won the title in Hong Kong in early November. She beat Katie Boultier in the final of that competition. Diana has not played a single match indoors this season, but on outdoor hard courts she has 31 wins and 15 losses.
Professional qualities
Schneider is only 20 years old, but she has already established herself as one of the best attacking players on tour. A left-hander, she gets an additional advantage from her working forehand – strong and accurate, which creates problems for opponents, especially when playing into their backhand. The Russian feels confident on fast surfaces: she reacts better to rebounds and does not try to finish rallies in two or three hits.
Current indicators in the tour
Schneider is currently ranked 13th in the world. This season has been a success for the 20-year-old Russian. She has won four major tournaments this year - in addition to winning the Hong Kong tournament, she won in Hua Hin, Hamburg and Budapest.
Interesting facts for betting

1.21Tip and bets
Schneider has demonstrated impressive efficiency on hard courts this season, especially in matches where she was considered a favorite. Her confidence and experience allow her to dominate most of the rallies. However, the Russian has played few indoor matches in her career. We believe that the indoor surface in St. Petersburg may well become a problem for Diana and Tomova in the tournament format - three sets of 20 minutes, maybe they will be able to catch Schneider on mistakes. We suggest betting on the Bulgarian tennis player in this pair for a pretty good coefficient.
Our prediction is Tomova victory with odds of 4.01
