Tennis Prediction of the Day Bianca Andreescu vs Elise Mertens

Unlike Bianca Andreescu, who has lost only one set so far at this US Open, Elise Mertens had a perfect journey, with no set lost. However, she had a much easier aisle, meeting players only from the 60th place down. Interestingly, he defeated all with identical scores in the two sets (6-1, 6-1 / 6-2, 6-2 / 6-3, 6-3). The Belgian is in good shape, he has an unexpected chance to advance to the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament, but the same opportunity motivates Bianca Andreescu. However, the Romanian-Canadian is stronger and has a more complete game. Normally, Mertens won’t be hindered.

Prediction Today: Bianca Andreescu
Odds: 1.54

Bianca Andreescu is one of the best tennis players in the world, comes after the title at the Canadian Open and here she can take her first grand slam, although with a Serena in top form is hard to believe. Anyway Bianca is feeling good and should enter the semifinals. His service is good but Andreescu generally does not send many aces, having 1 here with Volynets, 6 with Flipkens, 2 with Wozniacki and 5 with Townsend. Elise Mertens is better in this area of the game, and even though she had very short matches here, she has 3 aces with Teichmann, 5 with Pliskova, 7 with Petkovic and 2 with Ahn.

Bet Tips: Elise Mertens sends more aces
Odds: 1.55
