Both tennis players are on a decent slump and will be looking to start today with a win in New York. With not the best play, Muguruza’s experience is favoured.
Given the recent setbacks, it’s hard to expect either side to pull off an easy win today.
Garbine Muguruza is in a prolonged match crisis. Back in February, she reached the quarter-finals in Doha. She has not managed to get more than one round of the table in any of her subsequent tournaments.
Her approach to the US Open was unsuccessful. In Toronto, after defeating Kaia Kanepi, Garbiñe lost to Belinda Bencic (1-6, 3-6). In Cincinnati, she had nothing to offer in her opening match against Elena Rybakina (3-6, 1-6). In New York, Muguruza must defend her ranking points for last year’s 1/8 finals. If she fails, she will leave the top 10.
Clara Tauson is also having a disappointing season. Since the beginning of the year, she has won only 10 matches on tour, while suffering 12 defeats.
On the eve of the US Open, Tauson played four hard-court tournaments. She had her best result in Concord where she reached the quarterfinals. True, the level of her rivals at those tournaments was not too high. In New York a year ago, she lost to Ashleigh Barty in the second round (1-6, 5-7).
In only one of Muguruza’s last five matches, more than 9.5 games have been played in the second set. We offer to bet on “2nd Set Games – Under 9.5” with odds of 1.57.
