Betting Predictions

First Set Analysis

The prediction for over 1st set games at 66.60% suggests a higher likelihood of a longer first set. This aligns with Tikhonova’s recent performances where she often extends sets due to her defensive prowess. Conversely, the under 1st set games at 57.50% indicates that a shorter set is not far-fetched, especially if Van den Broek can capitalize on quick points.

Tie Break Probabilities

The absence of a tie break in the first set is favored at 91.10%, reflecting Tikhonova’s ability to dominate or control rallies effectively. Similarly, the no tie break in the match probability at 79.30% suggests both players might secure their sets without reaching the tiebreak stage, possibly due to one gaining significant momentum early on.

Set and Game Predictions

The odds for under 2.5 sets at 67.30% hint at a potential decisive set scenario, likely influenced by either player’s ability to break their opponent’s serve decisively. The total games predictions further support this view: under 22 games at 56.50% and under 22.5 games at 48.60%, indicating a possible short match if one player dominates.

Over vs Under Games

With equal odds for over and under 22.5 games (48.60%), the match could swing either way depending on early service breaks and momentum shifts. Tikhonova’s experience may give her an edge in maintaining consistency, while Van den Broek’s tactical acumen could disrupt her rhythm.
