Our favourite Sofia Kenin vs Jelena Ostapenko predictions

The most accurate Guadalajara Open predictions are available here to help you place your best bet.

Ostapenko to win @ 8/15 (1.53)

The only time Kenin beat Ostapenko was after three sets and on clay. Jelena won both of their games on hardcourt.

Ostapenko has more victories on hardcourt than her opponent. In addition to being higher ranked, the Latvian player triumphed in straight sets the last time she met the American. My prediction is that Ostapenko will win.

Over 19.5 games @ 5/6 (1.83)

When they last met, barely 52 minutes had passed until Ostapenko had defeated Kenin. Jelena saved five break points and only gave up one serve.

The American player’s performance has been unpredictable since then. Based on those considerations, I believe we will witness another brief duel. As a result, there will most likely be fewer than 19.5 games.

The odds in this article were correct at the time of writing, and the odds are subject to change. We recommend checking with your bookmaker before placing a bet.

Sofia Kenin 

This season, the American players have a record of 24 victories and 17 losses. Kenin had a very successful month in September, reaching the final of the San Diego Open. In Guadalajara, she started the same way, with two straight-set triumphs, the first against Carol Zhao and the second against Anhelina Kalinina.

Jelena Ostapenko

Ostapenko was expected to perform well in San Diego after reaching the quarterfinals of the US Open and losing to Coco Gauff. Jelena, on the other hand, was knocked out in the second round by Danielle Collins. The Latvian woman defeated Marta Kostyuk in the first round and will now have the chance to break her losing run against American opponents.

Kenin vs Ostapenko Head to Head
