Paolini vs. Rybakina. Prediction for the WTA Finals Match
Paolini and Rybakina will meet in the first round of the group stage of the WTA Finals on November 2. Rybakina has been without proper playing practice for two months. The last time Elena took to the court was in an official match at the US Open at the end of August. How will her start at the finals go? - bets on the upcoming match are in our forecast.

Command Analysis

Jasmine Paolini

Current form
Since the end of September, Paolini has been actively participating in tournaments, demonstrating a stable game: in singles, she won 3 victories with 2 losses, and in doubles - 5 victories with 1 loss. The last tournament for the Italian was the tournament in Wuhan, where she reached the quarterfinals, losing in a tough fight to Zheng Jingwen.
Professional qualities
Paolini, although a clay court player, has improved significantly on fast surfaces, as evidenced by her title in Dubai and the final at Wimbledon. She has improved her ability to handle the low bounce and return a powerful serve, becoming more versatile. On the technical side, Jasmine is a consistent player with both forehand and backhand, often hitting the rising ball, maintaining a high tempo in the exchange of shots.
Current indicators in the tour
Paolini has a victory at the Dubai tournament this season - she beat Anna Kalinskaya in the final of that competition. In addition, this season Jasmine played in the finals of Roland Garros and Wimbledon, which also speaks of the progress of the 28-year-old Italian. In the world rankings, she is currently in fourth place.
Interesting facts for betting
In the first set, seven of Paolini last 10 matches have seen fewer than 9.5 games played.

Elena Rybakina

Current form
Rybakina, after a brilliant Wimbledon, seemed to have dissolved on the court. Since the end of August, she has been unable to find her game, having withdrawn from the second round of the US Open. Her last matches seem like a shadow of her former confidence - a defeat to Fernandez in Cincinnati with 17 double faults.
Professional qualities
Rybakina is one of the most powerful and attacking tennis players in the world. Elena plays exclusively number one, using powerful, flat strokes from both sides, which allow her to finish rallies in three or four strokes. However, this style of play is fraught with a large number of unforced errors.
Current indicators in the tour
Rybakina has had a consistently good season, winning three titles. She won in Brisbane, Abu Dhabi and Stuttgart. She has won 12 trophies in her career. The representative of Kazakhstan is currently in fifth place in the world rankings.
Interesting facts for betting
The first games in the last nine matches involving Rybakina were “low-scoring”.
