Command Analysis

Emma Raducanu

Current form
Raducanu has scored only two wins in five matches this season. Last week, Emma took part in a tournament in Abu Dhabi, where she failed to overcome the first round, losing to Marketa Vondroushova.
Professional qualities
Raducanu's dominant tennis at the victorious US Open in 2021 is a thing of the past. Since then, Emma has not demonstrated the same level of play and lives within the top 100. However, she has a solid base: powerful punches from both sides, a reliable first serve and an aggressive reception. But if one of the elements fails, the British woman is often inferior.
Current indicators in the tour
Raducanu is the 56th racket of the world at the moment. The British tennis player was once ranked tenth in the world rankings. During her career, Emma has won six titles, one of which is the WTA category. Her last trophy was a victory at the US Open in 2021.
Interesting facts for betting
Raducanu has a three-match losing streak.

Ekaterina Alexandrova

Current form
Alexandrova held her last tournament in Linz. She won those competitions, beating Dayana Yastremskaya in the final. This season, the Russian has five wins in eight matches played.
Professional qualities
Alexandrova feels as comfortable as possible on fast courts in halls where she can fully unleash her game. Her powerful, flat strokes and strong serve are especially effective in such conditions. Unlike hard court and clay tournaments, where wind, sun and unstable surface interfere, in the gym everything depends solely on the tennis player herself.
Current indicators in the tour
Alexandrova is the fifth racket of the world at the moment. Earlier in her career, she was ranked 15th in the world rankings. In total, Ekaterina has won 15 trophies in her career, five of which are in the WTA category.
Interesting facts for betting
Alexandrova has won 8 of 11 matches against British tennis players in her career.

This bet played in 3 of Alexandrova's 5 previous matches.
1.37Tip and bets
Alexandrova won a tournament in Linz in early February. After that, the Russian had plenty of time to relax and prepare for the hard tournament in Doha. Radukanu is far from her ideal playing conditions right now, so we expect Ekaterina to be able to pass the British.
Our forecast is that Alexandrova will win by a factor of 1.91
Bet on the total
The face-to-face meeting between the tennis players took place in a struggle, therefore, most likely, the upcoming match will turn out to be protracted. Raducanu and Alexandrova "love" to play "riding" duels. Both tennis players prefer an attacking style of play, which can lead to instability and numerous mistakes, making it inevitable to exchange sets.
The second forecast is a total of more than 22 games for a coefficient of 1.97
Bet on the first set
In three of Alexandrova's last five matches, fewer than 9.5 games were played in the first set. Most likely, the upcoming match against Radukanu will also start with the "grassroots" first game.
The forecast is a total of less than 9.5 games in the first set for a coefficient of 1.71
