Our favourite Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Marketa Vondrousova – match predictions
Martina Trevisan was easily outsmarted by Vondrousova, who claimed a 6-2 and 6-2 victory against her. It will be interesting how the Wimbledon champion comes out against Alexandrova, who has given her a tough time in their recent battles.
2-0 to Marketa Vondrousova @ 19/20 (1.95)
Ekaterina has impressed at Flushing Meadows, digging down deep to get past Leylah Fernandez in a deciding set and then earning a straight-set victory against Leslie Tsurenko. On the other hand, both of Marketa’s victories have come with a 2-0 scoreline. The Czech ace also has a favourable 3-1 record against the Russian star and should make it 3-1. Given Vondrousova’s effortless displays, we are anticipating another straight-set victory for her.
Under 20.5 Games @ 1/1 (2.00)
Alexandrova struggled against Fernandez’s all-around court coverage and baseline attacks. If the pint-sized Canadian could take her into a third set, Vondrousova would not give her that many chances. The Czech ace has only accrued seven games to her rivals thus far and has only been broken three times. On the other hand, Ekaterina has been broken nine times already. Given Marketa’s proficiency in finishing matches early and Ekaterina’s going missing at important junctures, we expect an early conclusion to this meeting with less than 20.5 games being played.
