Martha Kostyuk
The Ukrainian woman has been difficult this season, but now she has gained a good move. Kostyuk reached the quarterfinals in Madrid, where Sobolenko lost 6: 7, 6: 7. I would remind that Martha had Setbols in every party, visually, the first racket looked no better than a Ukrainian.
It may be even good that it has been so little time from the last meeting, because Kostyuk knows that she can beat the world ranking leader. In Rome, the second racket of Ukraine began with victory over the loud Alexander Eala from the Philippines – 6: 0, 6: 1. Then managed to beat the former “neutral”, and now Australian Dari Kasatkin – 6: 4, 6: 2. The last match was a victory over Strong Leila Fernandech from Canada – 6: 4, 6: 2. The Ukrainian man managed to spend 7 matches on the soil, winning six of them.
Arina Sobolenko
This season, Belarusian Neutralka shows high results, she played in eight tournaments, in six cases she reached the finals, took three titles. Sobolenko won the recent Madrid tournament, overcoming in the finals of Coco Hauf, but the most difficult battle she had against Kostyuk in the quarter -finals.
In Rome, the athlete began with the second circle, where she confidently beat another “neutral” Anastasia Potapov – 6: 2, 6: 2. The match against Sophia Kenya was more complex, here it was possible to win only three sets – 4: 6, 6: 3, 6: 3. Sobolenko rarely loses this season, 10 wins in 11 confrontations on the ground. Even with such significant figures, the game of tennis players is far from the ideal, it can and should be passed.
Personal meetings
Statistics are not in favor of the Ukrainian woman, played athletes three times, all the matches in two sets were won by Sobolenko. Tennis players played twice on the ground.
Forecast
Bookmakers give a clear advantage of “neutral”, they have no choice, because the first racket of the world, which is in good shape, will be a favorite against any rival.
It may be paradoxically sounded, but I think Martha will have a psychological advantage, in Madrid she realized that she could beat the world ranking leader, and Sobolenko felt that she did not always understand how to cope with a willful rival.
I expect a fascinating match, I will put KOSTUK with a +4.5 game. Betking Bookmaker estimates the likelihood of such a result with a factor of 1.95.
