Ostapenko - Stakusic. Prediction for WTA Guadalajara match
Ostapenko and Stakusic will meet in the second round of the tournament in Guadalajara on September 13. Ostapenko is the favorite in the fight against the young Canadian Stakusic, and the outcome of the match will most likely depend on the mood of Elena herself. If she avoids her own mistakes, there is no chance for a sensation. The analysis of the match and bets on this fight can be found in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Jelena Ostapenko
LatviaCurrent form
Ostapenko played her last match at the US Open at the end of August. As part of the New York major, we recall, Elena was unable to overcome the starting round, losing to Naomi Osaka. On the open circuit, the Latvian tennis player has 14 wins and nine losses this season.
Professional qualities
Ostapenko plays aggressive tennis. She hits powerful and sharp shots from both sides. At her best, Elena is capable of beating almost any opponent. However, when her form is far from ideal or her shots are not going well, the number of unforced errors increases sharply, which often leads to losses.
Current indicators in the tour
Ostapenko is currently ranked 12th in the world. This season, the Latvian has two trophies to her credit. She won in Adelaide and won the tournament in Linz.
Interesting facts for betting
In 4 of Ostapenko's last 5 first-round matches, fewer than 9.5 games were played.
Marina Stakusic
CanadaCurrent form
Stakusic beat Kamila Schmiedlova (6-2, 6-4) in the first round of the competition in Guadalajara. Marina served five aces, converted four break points and lost one game on her serve in the match against the representative of Slovakia. For the Canadian tennis player, this was the fifth victory on open hard courts this season with six losses.
Professional qualities
It's hard to single out any strong points in Stakusic's arsenal. Overall, she has a decent first serve, which sometimes brings her easy points, but it's not perfect and only works every other time. And the 19-year-old Canadian doesn't have any experience as such - she's been knocked out almost immediately at all the major tournaments this year.
Current indicators in the tour
Stakusic is ranked 155 in the world. This season, the Canadian has not won a single trophy. Marina's best results this year are quarterfinals in Prague and Ilkley.
Interesting facts for betting
On open hard courts, Stakusic has just two wins in her last eight games.
