Sofia Kenin vs Daria Kasatkina Prediction and Betting Tips (10.01.2022)

Command Analysis

Sofia Kenin

USA

A former World No. 4 player and a winner of 2020 Australian Open got into a long slump and so far she is unable to get back into the Top-10. In the previous season Sofia Kenin won only 11 matches and suffered 10 defeats.

Kenin started the new season with hopes to improve her performance. Kenin put up a decent performance at Adelaide last week. She managed to beat Bronzetti (7:5, 7:5) and Tomljanovic (3:6, 7:6, 6:3). In the quarter-final Kenin was defeated by the eventual winner of that competition, Ashleigh Barty (3:6, 4:6).

Daria Kasatkina

Australia

In the previous season Daria Kasatkina managed to put up a wonderful performance and won two titles at Melbourne and Saint Petersburg.

First matches of the new season were ambigious for Kasatkina. Russian player reached the semi-final, recorded a victory over the uncomfortable opponent, Madison Keyes (7:6, 2:6, 3:6). But Kasatkina put up a very weak performance in the semi-final against Anisimova (2:6, 0:6). Probably she is not in a perfect shape yet at the start of the season.

Tip and bets

1.99Kenin to win

Both players gained some match practice last week. We can't say that Kasatkina and Kenin put up a wonderful performance, Russian player completely failed the match against Anisimova. Kenin recorded two victories over Kasatkina in her career and we are expecting another one from the American player at Sydney.
