Belinda Bencic: Player form, news and statistics
V Î Î V V

Belinda Bencic is 10th in the WTA standings and nine in RACE, so she needs points to reach the championships tournament. Belinda did not do well in Wuhan, where she was eliminated by Kudermetova, although she was 4-2 decisively. It has moments of falling during a match, times when it is no longer concentrated, and things get out of control. Otherwise, she is one of the most talented players, one who manages all the shots very well. Here, he eliminated Hsieh, 7-5, 6-2. He offered nine break balls, of which he saved five, but played very well in return, scoring seven breaks.

At 39, Venus is far from her best game, but she is trying to finish the year with her forehead. The only decent tournament lately was at Cincinatti, where he lost in the quarterfinals with the Keys. At the US Open she lost early with Svitolina, then at WUhan she was eliminated in the first round by Danielle Collins. Here, he eliminated Barbora Strycova in three sets, which he dominated extensively on the live. He only offered six break balls, of which he saved two.

Tennis Prediction of the Day Belinda Bencic vs Venus Williams

Venus Williams will play this match less than 24 hours after a grueling match against Barbora Strycova, which ended in a decisive set, while Belinda Bencic is much more physically fresh. I expect the Swiss to dominate this meeting, gaining a comfortable victory and a qualification without big problems in the 3rd round.

Prediction Today: B. Bencic -4.5 games
Odds: 2.25

Belinda Bencic is trying to reach the champions tournament and has shown good form in the first round, with an awkward opponent, like Hsieh. I think Venus’s aggressive style suits her, because she has the ability to easily change direction. If he causes Venus to run, he will have trouble. I see it triumphing, because it has the advantage of age, and Venus has not won a good time with a valuable opponent.
