Command Analysis

Aryna Sabalenka

Sobolenko won three games at Wimbledon without losing a single set, but in each of the matches she experienced problems in individual games. At the start, she lost the initiative in a confrontation with Branstin (6-1, 7-5). Then, in duels with Buzkova and Raducanu, she won the first set only in tiebreaks and defeated these opponents with the same score 7-6, 6-4. It should be noted that at the last two starts in London, Arina made it to the semifinals and sheathed her racket.

Elise Mertens

Mertens had a high-quality preparation for Wimbledon with the title in 'S-Hertogenbosch, so her entry into the fourth round did not cause much surprise. Eliza's easiest match was at the start against Frukhvirtova (6-4, 6-2). In the second round, she played three sets with Ann Lee (6-7, 6-1, 6-2). Mertens passed the real test of strength in the third round, when she broke Svitolina's resistance (6-1, 7-6).

Sobolenko has beaten Mertens 10 times in her career, and she knows exactly what to expect from her. The Belgian tennis player was unstable in her matches, and Ann Lee lost a set. It is unlikely that at the moment Eliza is ready to play on equal terms with the first racket of the world, especially since throughout her career she regularly has difficulties in confrontations with top rivals.
Our betting tip is for Sobolenko to win with a handicap of (-4.5) games with a coefficient of 1.75
