Darya Kasatkina – Stats and Form

Kasatkina was tested a bit more in the third-round match against Agnieszka Radwanska, as she had to come away with a hard-fought 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 win. This was a sharp contrast to the first two matches which were straight set victories. Kasatkina made life difficult for herself after committing seven double faults, while only managing three aces. She managed to pick up just eight break point wins compared to the opponent’s six break points. It is one of the factors behind Beijing WTA odds not being in strong favour of Kasatkina.

Simona Halep – Stats and Form

Halep is not only a favourite for this game, but she is also considered as a favourite for the China Open 2017 in the Beijing WTA betting tips. Halep is seeded number two in the world coming into this tournament, and she was able to get ranked higher among the betting tips following a brilliant win over Maria Sharapova. The 26-year-old from Romania was rarely troubled in the game, as she did not commit any double faults and also had success in five out of the nine breakpoints. Sharapova was surprisingly poor in this game, but it was largely down to Halep’s perfect game. It is a reason behind China Open betting tips to be in strong favour of the 26-year-old for the WTA side of the China Open 2017.

Beijing WTA Betting Tips

Halep produced a near perfect match against Maria Sharapova. Even though the odds of repeating the same may be difficult in this upcoming quarter-final game, she comes on the back of a good head-to-head record against Kasatkina. After losing two consecutive matches, the Russian was finally able to get a win over Halep on a hard court back in September. However, it is highly unlikely that she may be able to repeat this feat once again, as Halep has been a strong run of form. The China Open betting odds are aware of Kasatkina dropping just one set, but she is up against a much better opponent. As a result, it is only possible to get long odds to back a victory for Kasatkina. Apart from being the No.2 seed, Halep has also been on a strong run of form at the start of the 2017 edition. Our China Open predictions expect a victory for Halep, and she can be backed at a great price.

Simona Halep played only two sets in 13 out of her last 15 matches and it is very likely that we will see two sets again. Even though the odds are not that short for her, given that she is the aiming for the WTA #1 right now, she is playing at a completely different level and Kasatkina should be no match for her. Kasatkina also plays only two sets in most of her encouters, so this pick is the best in terms of women's tennis odds.
