Ace is back to preview a women’s clash at the French Open on what shapes as a massive day of tennis action after rain delays on Day 4. Check out his preview and best bet below and good luck to everyone following!
Anna Blinkova got the better of me in round 1 when she took out Sorana Cirstea in a final set tiebreak, however I think this is not an overly favourable match-up for her tonight against Elina Avanesyan.
Avanesyan isn’t the most powerful player on tour, however she also doesn’t produce a high unforced error rate either. I didn’t back her in any capacity in round 1 as she was coming off a retirement in her last match, but she looked strong and consistent against Lin Zhu, winning 55% of 1st serve return points and 75% of second serve return points.
I think Blinkova was saved somewhat by her first serve percentage - at 71% it was her second highest first serve percentage since the start of 2023. If she performs above average again then fair play to her, however I will be siding with Avanesyan at the moneyline.
