Sabalenka – Andreeva: 16.03.2025 19:00 CEST<\/strong> Aryna Sabalenka has won five straight matches. This week in Indian Wells, Sabalenka won all matches in straight sets. She was dominant in every match since the opening round. Her biggest challenge happened in the opening round, winning against Kessler in tight straight sets. Sabalenka defeated Keys 6-0 6-1 in the semifinals. This is her sixth appearance in Indian Wells. She was the finalist in 2023, but she never won the title.<\/p>\n Mirra Andreeva has won eleven straight matches. Before the Masters 1000 in Indian Wells, Andreeva won the title in Dubai. This week in Indian Wells, Andreeva lost only one set en route to the final. She defeated Tauson, Rybakina, Svitolina, and Swiatek en route to the final. It was more than a thought draw so far for the Russian teenager. Andreeva upset Swiatek in the semifinals.<\/p>\n According to the bookies, Sabalenka is the favorite in this matchup, but we disagree. Andreeva is currently in her best form on the WTA tour. She is fully confident and never looks scared on the court. On the other hand, Sabalenka started this season great by winning the title in Brisbane and reaching the final at the Australian Open. However, in the last couple of weeks, Sabalenka has had several tough losses. We expect a tight match that could go either way.<\/p>\n That being said, Andreeva covering the games handicap is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: Mirra Andreeva +3.5 games handicap @1.80 @bet365<\/strong><\/p>\n Both Andreeva and Sabalenka are in great form. So far this season, Sabalenka has easily won both encounters in straight sets. However, Andreeva has improved drastically in the last couple of weeks. We expect a tight match with possibly three sets.<\/p>\n That being said, over games is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: over 21.5 games @-120 @FanDuel<\/strong><\/p>\n Andreeva is in great form, but she is still young and has a lot of areas where she needs improvement, especially her serve. In her semifinal encounter against Swiatek, Andreeva has not won a game with 40-0. As we previously mentioned, we expect a tight match with close games.<\/p>\n That being said, Sabalenka to win at least one point in every game in the opening set is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: Aryna Sabalenka to win 1+ points in every game in set 1 @-180 @FanDuel<\/strong><\/p>\n We previously mentioned expecting a three-set thriller that could go either way. We also expect at least one tiebreak in the match. Sabalenka and Andreeva will keep this match tight, and with three possible sets, there is a decent chance we will see at least one tiebreak.<\/p>\n That said, over 0.5 tiebreaks in the match is a value bet.<\/strong><\/p>\n Value bet\/ the best odds: over 0.5 tiebreaks @3.25 @bet365<\/p>\n <\/strong>Main Photo Credit: Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" WTA Masters 1000 Indian Wells Final Best Bets Sabalenka – Andreeva: 16.03.2025 19:00 CEST H2H: 5-1 Aryna Sabalenka has won five straight matches.
