Anett Kontaveit vs Irina Bara Prediction and Betting Tips (19.07.2022)

Command Analysis

Anett Kontaveit

Estonia

Anett Kontaveit is going through a long crisis. On April, Estonian player reached the quarter-final of Stuttgart tournament. In next three competitions she managed to win only one match.

Anett got an easy draw at Hamburg tournament, so it is a great opportunity for her to put an end to her cold streak and to get a confidence boost. In 2022, Kontaveit played only five matches on clay, winning only two of them.

Irina Bara

Romania

Irina Maria Bara finds herself outside of Top-100, she is far from her best form right now and her results are quite underwhelming. Since the start of the year, Romanian player recorded 21 victories on tour, losing 20 matches. She usually participates on low-prestigious tournaments.

Bara approaches the start of Hamburg tournament after a bad performance at Rome. In that competition she barely managed to beat Brancaccio (6:4, 2:6, 6:2), but in the second round she was eliminated by Schneider (6:3, 4:6, 1:6).

Kontaveit's cold streak is going on for way too long. A match against Bara is a great opportunity to secure a victory and to regain self-confidence. Romanian player is in a terrible form, plus she is just not good enough to compete against Kontaveit. Bara is unsuccessful even on low-prestigious tournaments, so favourite should be able to win this match.

Our prediction - Kontaveit to win with a handicap of (-5) games
