Best tennis tips and predictions today
In our first tip, we’re predicting Aryna Sabalenka to beat Madison Keys fairly simply in two sets, while in the other, we’re backing the over on the match between Mirra Andreeva and Magda Linette.
Sabalenka vs Keys – under 20.5 games @ 5/6
This one is pretty simple, as we’re going to back Aryna Sabalenka winning easily once more. She’s been in tremendous form, winning 14 matches in a row, and nobody has really come close to beating her.
While Keys is a tough player and has given her problems in the past, we think the Belarusian will be able to finish things off rather quickly.
Keys hasn’t looked in top form recently, even though this run here has been really strong. She’s a tricky player because, at her best, she can beat anybody. She even won a set 6-0 against Sabalenka the last time they played.
Still, Sabalenka leads the matchup 3-1 so far, and we think she’s going to win this one easily as well, so we’re going to back her to do it in less than 20 games. The odds are pretty decent for a bet we think will hit rather comfortably.
Andreeva vs Linette – over 19.5 games @ 4/6
In this one, we’re backing a rather small line for a matchup that could easily become a very long match, possibly going to three sets. Linette has shown a really good level here, and she is a capable player.
Andreeva is the better player and will likely win this match, but she has had problems with Linette in the past. They played at the Olympics this year, and Linette won comfortably in two sets.
We think the Russian will likely get her revenge this time around, but overall, it reads like a complicated matchup that should push this line above. The courts play somewhat slow, so Linette will have time to set up her shots.
Andreeva doesn’t have much power in her shots, but she’s a very smart player and uses angles well. So, in this showdown, we like the over as the odds are strong, and the likelihood of it hitting is strong.
