Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Over 20 – 1.72.
In June, Sabalenka managed to beat Rogers (7-6, 6-0) on the grass in Hertogenbosch. Today in Cincinnati, Aryna is the favourite, but at the same time, she is far from the samples of her best game. Shelby feels very confident on her home court, which was evident from her performance in San Jose. We believe that at the moment the American is not inferior to the 7th player in the world and will be able to fight for the victory.
In four of Sabalenka’s last five fully played matches, an exchange of sets won has been recorded. In the only head-to-head encounter, the two players played a tie-break in one of the sets. We expect the match in Cincinnati to be a long one as well.
Aryna Sabalenka has been unsuccessful in the American hard-court series. In San Jose and Toronto, she only made it through one round each, after which she shuffled off her racket. The quality of play caused a lot of questions, especially the huge number of double faults.
In Cincinnati, Aryna began her way to the tournament in the second round against Anna Kalinskaya (6-3, 4-1, walkover). Anna could not finish the match because of an injury.
Aryna Sabalenka has played more than 20 games in her last five matches.
Shelby Rogers got off to a great start in the American hard-court series. The world #30 managed to make it to the finals in San Jose but was defeated by Daria Kasatkina (7-6, 1-6, 2-6). She missed the Toronto tournament.
In Cincinnati, Rogers stopped Sofia Kenin (6-2, 6-1) in the first round. She was supposed to have a match with Amanda Anisimova next, but her opponent withdrew and let Shelby through without a fight in the 1/8 finals.
Shelby Rogers has won 4 of her last 5 matches against the players from the top 10.
In three of Rogers’ five previous matches, less than 9.5 games have been played in the second set. We offer to bet on “2nd Set Games – Under 9.5” with odds of 1.57.
