Fans should be in for a treat here. On the face of it this looks as though it should be a very exciting game, one where both players are required to put in plenty of work. I can see over 21.5 games here. Venus Williams likes to play on grass, this allows here attacking game to excel and she’s expected to be sharp going forward. And Suarez Navarro is enjoying some good form right now. The head to head score between these two is 3:3, with Venus winning the last match against Carla on grass. However, since that defeat Suarez Navarro has improved a lot, while the same can’t exactly be said for Venus.
I’m a big fan of the style of Suarez Navarro, unfortunately it’s only injuries that seem to prevent her from going to the next level. As a player she’s versatile, her pace is above average, and her shots are both very accurate and tight. If she is on her game she can definitely cause problems for Venus. With this in mind, it is fancied that fans could be in for the long haul here. The way to play this one is to go for over 21.5 games.
