Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (+5.5) for Begu – 1.62.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 22 – 1.60.
Begu is not a big fan of grass, but in her two starts in London, she has shown that she is ready for the tournament and can perform at her best at Wimbledon. Begu has a strong serve in her arsenal, which helps her decently on grass. The two head-to-head encounters between the tennis players have taken place on clay and ended in favour of Begu. We think that on the grass she will be able to put up a serious fight against the unstable Ostapenko.
In their two head-to-head matches, the two opponents have played 18 games. All the more so because in all the matches of Begu and Ostapenko in London, there were never more than 20 games played.
Irina-Camelia Begu repeated her achievement from last year and reached the third round of Wimbledon again. Interestingly, throughout her career, she has not been able to make it any further in London.
She took full advantage of a comfortable tournament net. In her first matches, she defeated Ekaterine Gorgodze (6-4, 6-1) and Elisabetta Cocciaretto (6-4, 6-4) without losing a set. In her two matches, Begu gave up just one serve, and the opponents in those matches had only two break points.
Begu has won four of her last five matches at Wimbledon.
Jelena Ostapenko came up to the start of Wimbledon after the Eastbourne final. At that event, in the decisive match, she failed to cope with Petra Kvitova (3-6, 2-6).
In the first two rounds in London, Elena beat Oceane Dodin (6-4, 6-4) and Yanina Wickmayer (6-2, 6-2). It should be noted that in the duel with Wickmayer, she did not look too convincing. She gave away her serve three times and made six double faults.
Ostapenko has won six of her last seven matches on grass.
In 4 of Ostapenko’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 1.65.
