TOMLJANOVIC TO BEAT GIORGI @ 2.10 

Tomljanovic played well last week in Brisbane beating both Siniakova and Konta before losing to eventual finalist Pliskova in three sets, a reproduction of that form should account for Giorgi who is making her seasonal reappearance

KONTAVEIT TO BEAT MERTENS @ 2.04 

Head to head is tied 1-1, Mertens lost first round in Brisbane and looked very rusty. Kontaveit hits the ball hard and flat and played well reaching eh QF at Brisbane and above evens is a price I am happy to take

KVITOVA TO BEAT SABALENKA @ 2.25

Head to head is tied 1-1, both these players can play lights out tennis, I expect the rallies to be short and brutal. Sabalenka won Shenzen after a tough final against Riske and Kvitova losing her second match narrowly in Brisbane, I expect Kvitova to be the fresher and at generous odds she is my pick here despite being a huge fan of Sabalenka

WTA HOBART 

BOGDAN TO BEAT JABEUR @ 3.32 

Jabeur leads the head to head 1-0, Bogdan has a decent serve and a fairly solid game and providing she improves on her performance at Shenzen last week where she won just one game in her opening round loss. Jabeur finished the season strongly but did not look particlaury great last week in Shenzen.
