Command Analysis

Sonay Kartal

Current form
Kartal has made a big name for herself this season, having reached the 1/8 finals of the Indian Wells tournament last week. In the main draw of those competitions, Sonai passed Lepchenko, Haddad Maya and Polina Kudermetova. However, it was not possible to oppose Sobolenko (1-6, 2-6). At the same time, in Indian Wells, the British tennis player failed to qualify and got into the main draw as a lucky loser.
Professional qualities
In his game, Kartal relies on reliable actions on the back line, often trying to wait for the mistakes of his rivals. The British woman does not play a stable game on her own pitch.
Current indicators in the tour
In 2025, Kartal played 12 matches in the tour, in which she won seven and suffered five defeats. In the world ranking, the British woman ranks 83rd.
Interesting facts for betting
- In the previous four matches with Kartal, the minimum number of sets was played.
- No more than nine games were played in the second set in Kartal's last four matches.

Jodie Burrage

Current form
Burrage is not doing much this season, although the British tennis player is trying and fighting. On the positive side, we note the recent victory in Austin over Kvitova (3-6, 6-3, 6-4). There, she fought two sets with Tomljanovic on equal terms, but failed the third game (6-4, 3-6, 0-6). At the start of qualifying in Indian Wells, Jodi could not match the experienced Golubic (3-6, 1-6).
Professional qualities
Burrage relies more on strong serve and quick draws in his game. Jody doesn't play very consistently on the back line, but she tries to make up for it with bold aggressive tennis.
Current indicators in the tour
Due to recent failures, Burrage has fallen back to 176th place in the world ranking, although not so long ago she was in the top 100 and rose to 85th place. Since the beginning of the year, the British woman has five wins and eight losses.
Interesting facts for betting
- Burrage has played three sets in two of her last three matches.
- In three of the previous five matches involving Burrage, no more than nine games were played in the second game.

4.10Tip and bets
Taking into account the successful performance in Indian Wells, bookmakers are leading Kartal as a clear favorite in the upcoming meeting. However, it is hardly worth overestimating Sonai so much right away, since she is not very stable and has not had much success in other tournaments. Burrage is not having the best season, but she is striving to return to her former level, in terms of her potential, she is in no way inferior to Sonai. We believe that there will be a stubborn struggle in the fundamental battle between the two British women.
