On September 22, Janina Wickmayer will take on Emma Raducanu for the spot in a quarter-final of Seoul tournament. Will Belgian player put up a favourite to the favourite? The answer is in our prediction.

Command Analysis

Yanina Wickmayer

A former World No. 12 player is not too successful in 2022. Her only highlight is the Wimbledon tournament, when she reached the second round, starting from qualification. Experience helps Belgian player to stay competitive.
Wickmayer started the Seoul tournament with a match against the winner of recent Chennai tournament, Linda Fruhvirtova. Czech player was unable to extend her winning streak and lost to Wickmayer (1:6, 4:6).

Emma Raducanu

Raducanu is still trying to regain consistency. Emma had some successful tournaments, but previous season was certainly a better one for Raducanu. She secured convincing victories over Serena Williams and Victoria Azarenka, but after that, she suffered a first round defeat to Alize Cornet at US Open (3:6, 3:6).
In the first round of Seoul tournament Raducanu faced Japanese player, Uchijima. Emma managed to convert a class advantage into a comfortable victory (6:4, 6:2).

Tip and bets
We are not expecting a groundbreaking performance from Raducanu. She lacks consistency, for example, she suffered a second round defeat to Friedsam at Chennai last week.
Wickmayer is not winning many matches, but she is fighting hard in every game, so we think that this time Belgian player will hold on to a +5 handicap due to her experience.
Our prediction - Wickmayer to win with a (+5) handicap
Underdog should be able to put up a fight here, so we offer to place a bet on total over. In each of four latest unsuccessful matches of Wickmayer more than 20 games were played.
Our second bet is on total over 20 games
