Command Analysis

Ekaterina Alexandrova

Current form
Five years later, Alexandrova returns to Limoges. The Russian tennis player has won these competitions three times in her career. It is difficult to judge what form she was in before the tournament, since she played her last matches in the tour in early October in Wuhan. However, we note that Ekaterina likes to play indoors and often achieves success; this year, she has the final of an indoor tournament in Linz under her belt.
Professional qualities
Aleksandrova tries to play in an aggressive manner, hit powerfully and lead the game. Plus, Ekaterina has a powerful first serve in her arsenal, due to which she can score many easy points on fast surfaces.
Current indicators in the tour
Alexandrova was unable to have a smooth and stable season, performing with varying success, winning 26 matches since the beginning of the year and suffering 24 losses. In the world rankings, the Russian tennis player currently occupies 28th place.
Interesting facts for betting
- In four of the last five matches, Alexandrova played three sets
- Two of Ekaterina three previous matches involved tie-breaks

Tamara Korpatsch

Current form
Korpatsch, unlike her upcoming opponent, has game practice. At the last two tournaments in the halls of Trnava and Angers, she made it to the second round and hung up her racket. It should be noted that in Angers, she lost to Alicia Parks, the future champion of those competitions (6-7, 2-6).
Professional qualities
The German tennis player does not have outstanding physical characteristics to dictate her game on the court with powerful shots and serves. Tamara is more inclined to exchange blows on the back line, likes to break the tempo, and actively uses shortened shots.
Current indicators in the tour
Korpatsch is having an unsuccessful season, as evidenced by only 17 wins and 35 losses and 172nd place in the world ranking. The statistics in the halls are also negative: three wins and five lost matches. Let us recall that the best result in the experienced German career is 71st place in the ranking.
Interesting facts for betting
- In her last seven matches, Korpatsch has played three sets against her opponents.
- No more than nine games have been played in the second set in the German tennis player five previous matches
Trends
Bet Total over 2.5 sets
Three sets were played in two of the three personal meetings.
2.75Match Tie-Break Bet – Yes
Tie-breaks have been played in two of Alexandrova last three matches
3.90Tip and bets
Alexandrova has not had any game practice for two months and it is far from certain that after such a break she will be ready to immediately demonstrate her best tennis and avoid a large number of unforced errors. Plus, she will have to play against a not very convenient opponent. Korpach lost two of her three personal meetings, but regularly imposed a fight on Ekaterina and there were no crushing victories.
Our prediction is a victory for Korpach with a handicap of (+6) games with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on total
Aleksandrova is not known for her consistency and her matches often end up being drawn out. Thus, in four of the Russian five previous matches, three sets were played, which we do not rule out today.
Second bet - total over 19.5 games for 2.00
Bet on the first set
In two of Alexandrova last three matches, more than nine games were played in the opening set. We think that the first set will be a tough battle for the initiative.
Forecast - total games in the first set over 9.5 with odds of 2.54
