How will the game go and which exact bets should I choose? – the answer is in our forecast
Command Analysis
Yulia Putintseva
KazakhstanCurrent form
Putintseva confidently entered the season, played in the semi-finals of Adelaide, and made it to the third round of the Australian Open. However, last week in Abu Dhabi, Yulia lost to Vondroushova at the start (2-6, 3-6). In Doha, the representative of Kazakhstan will try to perform better, especially since the opponent in the first round is not the most formidable. It should be noted that Putintseva failed to qualify on local courts a year ago.
Professional qualities
Julia has an excellent technique, is distinguished by her endurance, and is able to work reliably on the back line. At the same time, her serve is not the strongest, plus, emotions often prevent her from achieving success on the court.

In 2025, Putintseva played ten matches on the tour, in which she won six and suffered four defeats. Julia is currently ranked 21st in the world rankings.
Interesting facts for betting

Moyuka Uchijima
JapanCurrent form
Uchijima had played in five tournaments before the start in Doha. She did not have much success, she overcame the barrier of the first round in the main draw only at the Australian Open. In Qatar, Moyuka went through two qualifying rounds, defeated Zakharova (6-3, 2-6, 6-3) and Kartal (6-4, 6-3).
Professional qualities
Uchijima relies on long draws in his game, is more inclined to defensive tennis, although he is always ready to counterattack sharply. The Japanese woman's serve is not her strong suit.

4.10Bet Effectiveness of sets: 1>2
This is the scenario that unfolded in three of Putintseva's five previous matches.
2.23Tip and bets
The representative of Kazakhstan is the clear favorite in this pair, but it is unlikely that her victory will be easy today. Moyuki has two successful qualifying matches under her belt, she has adapted to the local courts, is distinguished by her intransigence on the court, and is able to keep a high tempo in the draws when exchanging punches. We believe that a crushing victory performed by Putintseva will not happen today.
Our prediction is that Uchijima will win with a handicap of (+5.5) games with a coefficient of 1.82

Uchijima is notable for her intransigence, with five tie-breaks played in her last eight matches. Plus, Julia is often unstable, she can fail entire sets.
The second bet is a total of more than 19 games for 1.78
Bet on the first set
We are waiting for a tight fight for the initiative at the start of the match. Moreover, in three of Uchijima's last five matches, more than nine games were played in the first sets.
The forecast is that the total number of games in the first set is more than 9.5 with a coefficient of 2.45
