Wozniacki vs. Safarova

Looking now at the matches scheduled for this Tuesday in Miami on the women’s competition, the highlight clearly goes to the contest between Caroline Wozniacki and Lucie Safarova.

Regardless of the final result of today’s match, Safarova already secured her return to the top 30. The veteran Czech knows how important it is to be one of the 32 seeded players in Grand Slam events in order to avoid the highest ranked opponents in the first rounds. Lucie is enjoying the game conditions in Miami with the 2015 French Open runner-up featuring a high-quality performance in the previous round against Dominika Cibulkova.

The former world no.1 – Wozniacki – continues her outstanding run in recent months. Despite Garbine Muguruza’s retirement in the previous round, the Spaniard played at a very high level in the opening set. However, Caroline’s baseline consistency proved to be too much for Muguruza with Garbine unable to continue after losing the opening set due to illness.

Due to Safarova’s inconsistency and Wozniacki’s recent performances, the Danish is the clear favourite to reach the semi-finals with Pinnacle offering 12/25 for her win while Lucie is available at 19/10 with 5Dimes. For those who want to take a higher price, Wozniacki’s -3.5 game handicap at 83/100 with Pinnacle is definitely the best approach for this match.
