Jelena Ostapenko – Stats and Form
Ostapenko was able to get a comfortable victory over Cirstea and she has yet to drop a set so far in this tournament. The biggest test was the second set against Samantha Stosur in the second round, but it has been plain sailing for the 20-year-old from Latvia since then. She has had recent successes that makes her confidence levels quite high. The most recent success was in the Korea Open in Seoul. At 20 years of age, however, she has a long way to go before being considered as a favourite for a game against the world number two. The China Open betting tips are aware that the youngster could spring up a surprise given her recent form.
Simona Halep – Stats and Form
Halep once again produced a near perfect performance to pick up a comfortable win over Kasatkina. She was able to win seven out of the nine breakpoints, and this proved to be the difference in the game. China Open predictions are in favour of the Romanian not only winning the semi-finals but also going the distance and securing a victory in the tournament. She has had a relatively comfortable run up to the semi-finals and it is highly unlikely that the 26-year-old will be trouble in the remainder of the tournament. China Open betting odds expect a resounding success for Halep after a brilliant 2017.
Beijing WTA Betting Tips
Halep has been almost perfect in the last two matches and she comes up against a 20-year-old Latvian, who has been making significant impact in the tournament already. Surprisingly, Halep has lost in her only game against Ostapenko back in June. This French Open defeat against the youngster was a major surprise, but Beijing WTA betting tips is aware that Halep has gone up a notch in terms of performances over the last few matches. Further, this match is on a hard court and this could make a lot of difference in terms of tennis final odds. Even though both players have not dropped a set in the last two matches, Halep did have a tough competition in the first round against Alison Riske. Yet, she is the player on form coming into this game. Beijing WTA betting odds highly favour Halep and we believe betting on her win is an excellent choice.

Simona Halep is a very emotional player and finals are always stressful for her. She is known to be very strong mentally, but there are times when she gets lost in the emotional rollercoaster given by the opponent returning many of her shots. She has been in a good form recently, but going for three sets here is the best choice since Ostapenko is definitely in a stunning form and Halep might lost her temper. Ostapenko played many three-set matches this year, so it makes sense to go for this betting market, not against it.
