Martina Trevisan to win
Townsend took a month off before returning to action in Cincinnati. She barely made it to the second qualifying round while Trevisan dropped only a game in her previous match. Given the recent form, Trevisan is the better player and it makes it worthy to go with her in this match for the given odds.
