Aryna Sabalenka vs Zheng Qinwen prediction and betting tips on November 2, 2024
Game Prediction
The ATP Finals is a prestigious event, and this year it will take place in Saudi Arabia. Here’s my prediction for the match between Aryna Sabalenka and Zheng Qinwen.
Aryna Sabalenka
Although the season isn’t over yet, Sabalenka has already had a year to remember. She claimed major titles at the Australian Open and the US Open, along with wins in Cincinnati and most recently in Wuhan.
In addition to these titles, she’s also reached other finals, and just recently, she achieved the top world ranking. Sabalenka has long been capable of reaching this level, though in the past, her psychological resilience sometimes held her back. This season, she’s shown significant progress in this aspect.
Zheng Qinwen
The Chinese player has also had a strong season, reaching the Australian Open final, where she fell to Sabalenka. Zheng has taken titles in Palermo and Tokyo, but her crowning achievement came at the Paris Olympics, where she won gold.
In solid form, Zheng reached the final at the last tournament in Wuhan, only to be bested by Sabalenka again in a hard-fought three-set match. At just 22, Zheng currently sits at No. 7 in the rankings and shows promise for further growth. She’ll certainly be looking to make her mark in the finals.
Match Facts
- Sabalenka has claimed 54 victories in 66 matches this season.
- Zheng has played 65 matches, winning 49 of them.
- The odds for this match are currently: Sabalenka – 1.38, Zheng – 3.1.
Head-to-Head
The players have faced off four times, with Sabalenka winning each encounter. They’ve met three times this year, and while Sabalenka leads 4-0, Zheng put up a strong fight in their most recent match.
Prediction
Sabalenka is the favorite going into this match, with a clear advantage in their head-to-head record. Zheng is a formidable player, though, and capable of challenging her. A bet on a total of over 20.5 games could be a promising option, as both players have the skills to keep this a competitive battle.
