Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-5) for Halep – 1.66.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 20.5 – 1.63.
Halep was very confident in two rounds in Toronto, showed a balanced game both on her serve and on the receiving end, and made the minimum number of unforced errors. Obviously, she is now in great shape and it will be difficult to stop her. We don’t think Teichmann can compete with the former world #1.
In her two matches at the tournament, Halep has not allowed her opponents to score more than six games. We don’t expect Teichmann to be able to claim anything more today.
Simona Halep has reached at least the quarterfinals in her last three starts in Toronto. This year, she is clearly set to perform well in Canada.
In the first round, the former world #1 left no chance against Donna Vekic (6-0, 6-2). In the second round, Halep defeated Zhang Shuai (6-4, 6-2) with equal confidence. Simona was very aggressive and courageous, with a minimum of errors.
Each of Halep’s last 12 meetings has ended in exactly two sets.
Teichmann is playing in Toronto for the first time in her career. Reaching the 1/8 finals of the competition can clearly be considered a success for her, who has a chance of making her debut in the top 20 at the end of the tournament.
Jil Teichmann went through the net without giving up sets to Venus Williams (6-2, 6-3) and Anett Kontaveit (6-4, 6-4). In her match against Anett, Teichmann served reliably, winning 65% of the points. The opponent only managed to break twice.
Teichmann has won 5 of her previous 6 games at the Masters.
In three of Halep’s five previous matches, less than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Under 9.5” with odds of 1.50.
