Prediction: Ekaterina Alexandrova VS Veronika Kudermetova 2025-05-31
The battle of the Russians is upon us. Ekaterina Alexandrova, the 20th seed, is looking to take down Veronika Kudermetova, the woman who just dismantled reigning Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova 6-0, 6-3. That's like taking down a tennis titan, folks.
Kudermetova is on fire, and her confidence must be soaring after that dominating win. But Alexandrova is no slouch, with five WTA titles under her belt and a solid game to back it up. The odds are in Alexandrova's favor, with most bookmakers listing her as the favorite at around 1.5.
However, I'm not convinced that Alexandrova can take down Kudermetova, who's playing some of the best tennis of her life. The spread is set at -3.5 for Alexandrova, but I think Kudermetova can keep it closer than that. My best bet is Kudermetova +3.5 at 1.83 (BetMGM). This is a value bet, as I believe Kudermetova's momentum and confidence will carry her through to a competitive match.
As for the total, I'm leaning towards the under 21.5 at 1.87 (Bovada). Both players have been serving well, and I expect a tight, strategic match with few errors. The under is a solid bet, given the circumstances.
So, there you have it. Kudermetova +3.5 and under 21.5 are my picks for this thrilling matchup. Don't @ me.
