On clay in Strasbourg, Linette was able to put up a good fight, even winning a set, but losing by four games. On grass, in our opinion, Kerber’s advantage will be more noticeable. On this surface, Angelique has shown an excellent game year after year and has all the chances to pass to the third round.
In all her winning matches on grass this season, Kerber has not allowed her opponents to win more than five games.
Angelique Kerber took a long time to get into shape. However, in May the experienced tennis player won the Strasbourg title on clay. There, by the way, she beat Linette (6-2, 4-6, 6-4).
In London, Kerber opened with a match against Kristina Mladenovic (6-0, 7-5). The match followed an interesting scenario. The first set was left entirely to Angelique, the second set was a close and equal battle (6-0, 7-5). On the whole, Angelique’s advantage was not in doubt and she has all the chances to prove herself at Wimbledon once again.
Angelique Kerber has won six of her last seven matches at Wimbledon.
The performances on grass are not Magda Linette’s strong side. She has a negative win-loss record (26-29) throughout her career on this surface. However, it is worth noting that she made it to the third round in her last two Wimbledon starts.
In the first round, Magda was frankly lucky with her opponent. Fernanda Contreras Gomez was inferior to Magda by all parameters and her 6-1, 6-4 victory is no surprise.
Magda Linette has lost nine of her last ten matches to left-handed opponents.
In 3 of Kerber’s last 5 matches, less than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Under 9.5” with the odds of 1.80.
