Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-3) for Swiatek – 1.82.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 21 – 2.04.
In the 2022 season, the tennis players played each other three times. Iga always won. She has won both on hard court and on clay.
Sablenk did well on her serve in her game against Pliskova. However, Karoline is not known for her strong serve game, unlike Swiatek. Of course, Aryna herself does not often play at the same level. Today we are going to play with an uncomfortable opponent. We think Iga will work on her mistakes and for the fourth time, this season will cope with Aryna.
In their three head-to-head matches this year, the tennis players have not played more than 17 games.
Swiatek reached the semi-finals at her third Grand Slam tournament this season. Previously, she had only stopped at Wimbledon.
In the quarterfinals, Iga defeated Jessica Pegula (6-3, 7-6). Both players were too often mistaken on serve, but Swiatek eventually converted seven break points to defeat Pegula.
Important fact: Swiatek won her 8th match in a row against a top-10 player without dropping a single set.
Remarkably, for the world #1, this is her 55th win of the season. She has only lost seven matches this year.
At the current tournament, Swiatek has only given up one set so far.
Sabalenka reached the semi-finals of the US Open for the second year in a row.
In the semi-finals, Aryna defeated Karolina Pliskova (6-1, 7-6). It was a hot second set, but even here Karolina didn’t have a single break point.
Sabalenka made only three double faults in the match, which have been known to be the main reason for her failures this season. According to Aryna, at some point, she changed her first serve technique, thanks to which she started to make far fewer errors.
Although even though this helps not always. In the second round, Aryna was losing to Kaia Kanepi 2:6, 1:5. Only a miracle and mistakes of her opponent helped her to make a comeback.
Sabalenka has won her last 5 consecutive matches in the United States.
In each of the four head-to-head encounters, less than 8.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Under 8.5” with odds of 2.77.
