Command Analysis
Jessica Pegula
USAPegula has been playing successfully in Canada for several seasons. In Toronto, she played in the semifinals in 2022, and in 2023, she won the title in Montreal. This year, we see a successful start from the American and a reliable game. Without giving up any sets, she beat Pliskova (7-5, 6-4) and Krueger (6-2, 6-4). Ahead is the match against Stearns, whom Jessica beat without any problems last year on hard in Washington (6-3, 6-4).
Peyton Stearns
USAStearns switched to hard last week in Washington and made it to the second round. In Toronto, the American has been largely lucky so far. In two of her three matches at the tournament, her opponents withdrew due to injuries – Keys and Azarenka. In fact, she played only one match in full, beating Blinkova, who is far from optimal at the moment, in the first round (6-4, 6-3).

That scenario has played out in three of Stearns' previous five games.
2.21Tip and bets
Stearns made it to the quarterfinals in Toronto with a bit of luck. Peyton hasn't demonstrated a stable game on her serve, and without this component it will be difficult to compete with Pegula on equal terms. A year ago on hard court in Washington, Jessica beat her compatriot with an advantage of five games, it is unlikely that anything will change in the balance of power in this pair today.
Our prediction is Pegula's victory with a handicap of (-4) games at odds of 1.74
Bet on total
Pegula played two matches in Toronto and did not lose even one set in either of them. We believe that she will not have any serious problems with Peyton Stearns, due to her more reliable actions on her serve.
The second bet is total under 21 games for 1.90
Bet on the second set
It should be noted that in the two matches played in Toronto with Pegula's participation, more than nine games were played in the second set, which we do not rule out today.
Forecast - total games in the second set over 9.5 with odds of 2.27
