WTA NEW HAVEN: GASPARYAN TO BEAT HSIEH @ 2.30


WTA NEW HAVEN 

GASPARYAN TO BEAT HSIEH @ 2.30

Gasparyan has been decimated by injuries but when she is fit and well then she is a very talented player as she showed earlier this season by reaching the latter part of tournaments on the ITF tour, Hsieh was on the verge of just competing as a doubles specialist a couple of years ago but has since transformed herself with some superb results but she still does not convince me and I think a fit Gasparyan can overpower Hsieh here with her flat hitting

GASPRAYAN 66.8% 36.5% 17-5(58-32)

HSIEH 60.6% 40.4% 26-17(277-163)


PLISKOVA TO BEAT SASNOVICH @ 2.23
Head to head is tied at 1-1 both matches featured a tie break. Kristyna Pliskova has never quite kicked on like her sister despite having the better results as junior player and being the player tipped to make it to the top, her serve is excellent but the rest of her game needs improving. Sasnovich has been playing well and has good variation to her game but on this occasion I feel Pliskova’s serve will be the dominating aspect of this match.

PLISKOVA 72.8% 30.9%

SASOVICH 63.5% 38.4%


LAPKO TO BEAT DIYAS @ 2.07
Lapko has more power than Diyas who is solid if unspectacular player, If Lapko is on form then she will be able to hit through and overpower Diyas in this matchup

LAPKO 64.8% 38.9% 9-10(38-21)

DIYAS 63.7% 39.5% 24-11(149-103)

BLINKOVA TO BEAT BOGDAN @ 2.60
Almost identical stats and win-loss records on hard courts so similar to the Kenin match the value here is on Blinkova as it should be around 2.10 price for her to win this

BLINKOVA 67.1% 45.7% 19-11(33-15)

BOGDAN 67.9% 40.5% 24-12(72-41)
PEREZ TO BEAT GIORGI @ 6.92
Going to take a punt on the big outsider here as Giorgi is a player quite capable of losing to anyone on any day as she is that unpredictable, Perez has a decent serve and if Giorgi has an off day when she starts spraying the ball all over the place then 6.92 will look a huge price

PEREZ 66.8% 31.9% 13-14(37-39)

GIORGI 64.9% 37.1% 11-8(115-91)

ZIDANSEK TO BEAT FLIPKENS @ 2.63
Zidansek has been playing excellent tennis recently and surging up the rankings as a result, she has had some superb results on the clay but looking at her record on hard courts is not too shabby either with a 33-10 career record. Flipkens may just struggle to hold serve in this match up as Zidansek does have a vastly superior return game 

HOLD SERVE BREAK SERVE

ZIDANSEK  67.5% 47.2% 15-5(33-10)

FLIPKENS 65.7% 35.6% 15-9(143-107)

KENIN TO BEAT PETERSON @ 2.10
Both been in decent form of late and they have near identical records on. Hard courts as well as very similar serve and return stats and both had excellent victories here yesterday, the match is even so I am going to take the 2.10 as quite simply it should not be available. 

HOLD SERVE BREAK SERVE

KENIN 69.1% 36.8% 30-17(70-39)

PETERSON 67.2% 40.5% 30-16(87-41)
