The action at WTA Abu Dhabi is winding down, as we have reached the quarterfinals. Three Americans have made the quarterfinals, but two of them are matched out of the gate. LWOS has our best bets for the quarterfinal matches. Don’t be afraid to share your best bets in the comments section.
WTA Abu Dhabi
Eala – Alexandrova: Time 05:00
H2H: 0-0
Alexandra Eala will take on Ekaterina Alexandrova in one of the more interesting matches of the round. Eala is off to a fantastic start in 2026, going 8-3 so far. Alexandrova has not had similar results, instead going 2-3 to open her year. Eala has a semifinal and two quarterfinals, counting WTA Abu Dhabi.
Best Bet to Make
The books have Alexandrova as a pretty solid favorite. The average odds check in at 1.29 to 3.51 in Alexandrova’s favor. The books don’t just think Alexandrova is going to win; they have her winning handily, as you can get Alexandrova 2:0 at 1.83 on several sites. They also have the under on 20 games at 1.99 on 1xBet. I think Eala is worth a flier at 3.77 on Pinnacle. Even if it’s just a $100 bet, the return is too good not to consider the bet.
That being said, Eala winning is a value bet for sure.
Value bet/the best odds: Eala winning @3.77 @Pinnacle
Samsonova – Baptiste: Time 06:30
H2H: 1-1
Liudmila Samsonova and Hailey Baptiste round out the quarterfinals. This will be the third match between the two, with the series tied up at one all. Both ladies are 4-3 in 2026, and both of them have faced fairly tough competition on their way to this quarterfinal. The only thing separating them is that Samsonova won their only hardcourt match, and Baptiste took the only match on clay.
Best Bet to Make
The books have Samsonova as a considerable favorite. The average is 1.37 to 3.04 in Samsonova’s favorite. The one thing I think is worth noting is that both of their previous matches went all three sets. They’ve played at least 23 games in both matches, too. This is where I think the smart money is at. Either take the over on 22 games at 2.1 on 10Bet or take the over on 2.5 sets at 2.6 on Betway.
That being said, Over on 22 games is a value bet for sure.
Value bet/the best odds: Over on 22 games @2.1 @10Bet
