Kudermetova - Bulter: betting tip for the Australian Open match

Current form

Since the beginning of the season, Kudermetova has gradually, it seems, gained game form. In any case, her results are now better than they were last year. In Hobart, Veronika made it to the quarterfinals. At the Australian Open, she more than confidently and with class beat Gadecki in the first round (6-1, 6-1).

Professional qualities

Veronica has a rich technical arsenal and excellent technique, worked out to the smallest detail. At the same time, it is often the desire to play strictly according to the developed plan that prevents her from achieving success, since it is not easy to change tactics during matches, to adapt to opponents.

Current indicators in the tour

At the moment, Kudermetova occupies a modest 75th place in the world ranking. Let us recall that at one time she was the world tenth racket. In Melbourne a year ago, Veronika put away her racket in the first round and now has the opportunity to replenish her point reserve.

Interesting facts for betting

• Kudermetova has won all three of her victories since the start of the season with a precise score of 2-0 in sets.
• In five consecutive matches involving Veronica, no more than nine games were played in the second set

Current form

Boulter showed herself well at the United Cup team competition at the beginning of the season, where she confidently dealt with Podoroska and Gadecki and lost to Swiatek in three sets in a close fight (7-6, 1-6, 4-6). The start in Melbourne was not easy for Katie – it was difficult to snatch a victory from the not very formidable and rather straightforward Marino (6-4, 3-6, 7-5).

Professional qualities

Boulter has a powerful first serve, which makes her comfortable on fast surfaces. Katie is not very confident on the return, and she does not always work reliably and accurately on the baseline, she tends to sharpen the game, which leads to unforced errors.

Current indicators in the tour

Boulter played strongly last season and is now ranked No. 25 in the world. On the courts in Melbourne, she defended the ranking points from last year second round, but clearly has no plans to stop there.

Interesting facts for betting

• Boulter has played three sets in her last two matches
• Only one of Boulter last four matches saw more than nine games played in the second set.
