Sorana Cirstea vs Belinda Bencic Prediction, Betting Tips & Odds │1 SEPTEMBER, 2022

The WTA betting scene has to figure among one of the if not the trickiest scenarios in the world. Many times, the top 10 seeds are out by the Fourth Round/Semis, thus you can end up picking a favorite and still end up losing big. A busy tennis schedule round-the-clock sure takes its toll on these wonderful athletes. How will it be when Belinda Bencic will take on Sorana Cirstea in the Second Round?

Bencic was pushed to her limits by veteran Andrea Petkovic in the first round. She did win 6-2, 4-6, 6-4 but there is no doubt that it took all the concentration in the world to get through. Belinda probably got through due to her amazing play on the first serve where she earned a 81% win percentage compared to 65 by Petkovic. In terms of the first serve, she was outmatched. She garnered a 34-24 receiving points advantage while winning 12 out of the 22 service games.

Bencic has fallen out of her top-ten rankings for a long time now but remains a strong player, coming into the tourmaent with an impressive 13th seed. She has never made it past the Semis of a Grand Slam and it was the US Open where she achieved the Semis birth in 2019, securing a Quarter-Finals berth last year. How far can the Swiss stalwart go from here?

Sorana marches into the game after gathering a 6-4, 6-4 win against Laura Siegmund. She did a great job on the receiving points, garnering a 33-21 points advantage while winning seven out of the 12 service games in the match-up. Her first and the seconds serve win% were both in the 60s which was enough against Laura. She ended up nabbing five out of seeven break points.

At age 32, Sorana is an experienced campaigner who may have never gotten past the 21 ranking, which was in 2013, but has been ratting the nest of many players. However, her play against top-ranked players has always been questionable and the major reason why she has never made a deep run into the rankings despite playing for around 15 years at this point.

Interestingly, Cirstea has won both the battles between these two players. Her last win came just a couple of weeks ago during Cincinnati Masters, when she won 6-2, 6-7, 6-4 in a thriller.

A win against Bencic just a couple of weeks away bodes well for the prospect of Sorana in this game but Belinda has historically made deep runs in the US Open, taking care of business in the early stages. How will Sorana’s aggressive style match up against the all-court play of Bencic? Both players can commit a ton of double faults and that can rub off here. But I believe Bencic will play a cleaner game and win this in either two long sets or in a three-set affair.
