Simona Halep – Statistics & Current Form

Current ranking in the world rankings: 7.
Position in the seedling list: 7

The Romanian Simona Halep has a mixed record on the sacred turf of Wimbledon. Although she reached the semi-finals in 2014 and could then fix two quarter-finals, but she had already five times in the first week (round one to three) say goodbye to the most prestigious tournament in the world.

Halep, currently number seven in the world, has a very strong 31:10 match record this season, but has yet to win a tournament this season. Both in Doha (against Elise Mertens) and at the premier event in Madrid (against Kiki Bertens), the 27-year-old had beaten in the final.

The first tournament win in 2019 at Wimbledon would certainly be a surprise. Lawn is not necessarily the East European. The way to the net is avoided as often as possible. She describes herself as an “aggressive baseline player” who makes few mistakes. Against her compatriot Mihaela Buzarnescu she made in only three sets of 19 unforced errors, but has also only twelve winners beat. Really impressive was their game against Buzarnescu, which does not act very successfully in 2019, by no means. In this regard, we see between Halep and Azarenka in the offered odds no value.

Viktoria Azarenka – Statistics & Current Form

Current ranking in the world rankings: 40.
Position in the seedling list: unset

Belorussia has put her own career second in her life and her private life has come to the fore. After the birth of her boy and the separation from the father, there was a custody battle, the Azarenka prohibited by court order to leave California. Azarenka renounced her career and returned only after the end of the dispute in May 2018 back on the tour. As a result, she fell back in the world rankings and is now back on the way to fight in the top-20. Azarenka has a 19:13 match record in 2019 so far. However, she has to wait a bit for her 21st tournament victory. Last time, she was able to stretch a trophy to heaven in April 2016.

Before Wimbledon Azarenka denied only the tournament in Mallorca, but lost there in the first round against Caroline Garcia. However, the lack of match practice on the green underground was not noticeable to her at Wimbledon. After the victory against Alize Cornet she shot Ajla Tomljanovic downright. After the fast 0: 2-Breakrückstand made it short process and gave not a single game from more. In 62 minutes, the victory was fixed thanks to an impressive performance. Azarenka delivered power tennis in almost flawless perfection and is certainly not to act as an outsider in this form. The performance has left an impression and between Halep and Azarenka a prediction on the Belarusian is definitely recommendable.
