LiontipsLyudmila Samsonova - Hayley Baptist: betting tip (cf 1.70) and bets on the Abu Dhabi WTA match
Command Analysis
Samsonova failed her performance at the Australian Open, where she suffered a sensational defeat from Siegemund in the first round. Clearly in Abu Dhabi, Lyudmila is betting on rehabilitating herself for that failure. So far, she's been doing well. In the first round, the Russian tennis player confidently dealt with Kenin (6-4, 6-0). Then she scored an equally convincing victory over Tien (6-2, 6-2). It should be noted that Samsonova demonstrated her best result on local courts in 2023, when she was able to qualify for the finals.
Baptiste played well at the Australian Open, finishing in the third round, and continued to play successfully in Abu Dhabi. Haley overcame the resistance of Kostovic (4-6, 6-3, 6-4) and Navarro (7-6, 0-6, 6-3) in three-set battles. The American did not show a stable game in these matches, but she is physically well prepared and works well on her serve.

2.21Tip and bets
The bookmakers are leading the Russian tennis player as the clear favorite in this pair. Still, we would not immediately discount the American woman. Baptiste outplayed the difficult Navarro the day before, knows how to make the most of herself at key moments of matches, and has a powerful serve. Plus, the tennis players exchanged victories in personal meetings. We are waiting for a tight and equal fight in this pair.
Our betting tip is that Baptist will win with a handicap (+4.5) of the game with a coefficient of 1.70
