Our tip: Swiatek I. – Pliskova Ka.: More than 17,5 games

16.02.2024 16:15

Karolina Pliskova has been adorned with a lot of self-confidence these days. Thanks to that, she won eight matches in eight days, on top of which she took a long overnight flight from Cluj, Romania, to Doha, Qatar, with a transfer in Istanbul on Sunday night. While she won her 17th career title in Romania, she has already reached the semi-finals in Doha, turning two matches around, winning three three-set battles and beating Naomi Osaka in two tiebreakers on Thursday.

She was down in both sets to the Japanese, but again showed great fight to make up for the break losses, and finally, after less than two hours, she fought her way into the top four, where world number one Iga Swiatek is already lurking.

The Polish tennis player is in great form in Doha, winning all three of her matches in two sets, and she even gave Victoria Azarenka a canary in the quarter-finals. But even Shwiatek has shown this year that she is definitely not unbeatable, falling in the third round to Linda Noskova at the Australian Open.

Although Pliskova has lost all four of her matches against the Pole so far, she put in a decent performance against the world number one last year. She even took a set off her in Stuttgart and lost to her 6:7, 2:6 in Montreal on the concrete. Given the Czech player’s form, this might not be a debacle, which Šwiateková has been inflicting on her opponents in Doha so far.

What to bet on:

Pliskova has been in her best form in years since the Cluj tournament. This is reflected in her confidence and performance. She’s more mobile on court, she’s not afraid to go to the net, and she’s able to work on her serve at key moments, which has been her main weapon throughout her career. She’ll probably lose to Swiatek again, but she could be instrumental in not being done in an hour. At least 18 games will be played.

Confidence:

8/10
