Ons Jabeur vs Aryna Sabalenka Prediction and Betting Tips (01.11.2022)

Command Analysis

Ons Jabeur

Tunisia

Ons Jabeur will play in the WTA Finals for the first time in her career. A World No. 2 player remained mostly unactive throughout the autumn. After the final of US Open she only participated at her home Monastir tournament, reaching the quarter-final.

It's hard to assess Jabeur's form before the start of the Finals. Overall, she had 18 victories and 10 defeats on hard surface throughout the current season.

Aryna Sabalenka

Belarus

Aryna Sabalenka managed to earn a spot in WTA Finals at the last minute. Belarusian player was not so successful throughout the autumn. She got eliminated from San Diego tournament by Donna Vekic (4:6, 7:6, 1:6) in the second round. After that, she suffered a defeat to Liudmila Samsonova (4:6, 6:2, 2:6) at Guadalajara.

One year ago, Aryna made her debut at WTA Finals. She won only one match and failed to advance into the playoffs.

Tip and bets

1.85total over 21 games

Sabalenka had poor results in recent tournaments, but she fought hard in every single match. Jabeur had a long pause after US Open, so she is probably in a poor physical shape ahead of the start at Fort Worth. We are not expecting an easy victory from any of these players, it will probably be a long match.

Our prediction - total over 21 games

2.09Sabalenka to win

Sabalenka won 2 of 3 head-to-head encounters. We think that Aryna is underestimated by the bookmakers, she might be able to put up a solid performance against Jabeur, who lacks match practice.

Our second bet is on Sabalenka to win the match
