WTA Indian Wells 1/64-Finals
Wang Xiy – Burel: 07.03.2024 20:00 CEST
H2H: 1-0
Wang Xiy is a young chinese player who is trying to get into the top 50 rankings. She is in great form at the moment. Last week, she played the final in Austin where she lost against Yuan in straight sets, but in a tough match. The WTA 250 Austin was a great tournament for her to prepare for Indian Wells. Both tournaments are played under almost the same conditions. Her opponent, Burel, had a great start to the season. Lately, she, had some ups and downs, but she was consistent enough. Burel has not played any official matches since mid-February, and we are not sure if she is struggling with some kind of injury. We believe that Wang is better prepared for this tournament. She has had enough time to rest since last week, and we believe that she will win tonight!
Value bet/ the best odds: Wang Xiy to win @1.73 @bet365
Podorska – Krueger: 07.03.2024 21:30 CEST
H2H: 0-1
Nadia Podoroska is a great clay court player. This year she has only played on the hard court, and you can see how her results were just terrible. It seems that she can not keep up with the speed of the court. Before Indian Wells, Podorska was on a 4-game losing streak where she did not win a single set. Here in Indian Wells, she has played two qualification rounds. She lost in the last qualification round after an almost three-hour match. However, she got into the tournament as a lucky loser. Her opponent, Ashlyn Krueger, is a young American prodigy. She has already had some big wins in her young career, but we believe that she is yet to show us her best tennis. Playing at home is always a privilege for a player. We believe that this tournament will be a breaking point for her to show us how good she really is. Both players had already played against each other last year in similar conditions. Krueger absolutely dominated in that match against Podoroska. We believe that Krueger is even more experienced this year and that she will win easily yet again!
Value bet/ the best odds: Krueger -4.5 games @1.91 @bet365
Osaka – Errani: 07.03.2024 23:00 CEST
H2H: 1-0
Naomi Osaka is back after being off the court for over a year. She did not have the best start of the season, which is obvious after someone takes such a long break. However, she played really well in Dubai and showed some signs of her best form. Her opponent, Sara Errani, is an Italian veteran. She played perfect qualification rounds here in Indian Wells. We have to say that she had an easy draw, so that is also a big part of why she won that easily! Errani usually has big problems against heavy hitters such as Osaka. If Osaka just stays consistent in this match, we believe that Errani will not have a chance. Osaka showed some good signs, and we believe that she will do well tonight on the big stage!
Value bet/ the best odds: Osaka to win 2-0 @1.67 @bet365
