- BET: Alize Cornet to bt. Shai Zhang
- Analysis: Alize Cornet like predicted by YourBettngAdventure yesterday had a good win against Parra, after a 1h14m first set drama lost by Alize 5:7 after having a couple of set points on 5:3 leading, she won pretty easily last two sets losing just a couple of games playing very focused on the match, showing a great physical shape, a solid playing and with a confidence back that her game for sure needed. Those kind of conditions in the desert of IW helps absolutely such a fighter like her, that has not a brilliant tennis, neither so powerful or with a lot of dicrect winners, but if in confidence a player that can fight and run on the baseline on a solid way. Chinese Shuai Zhang is quite a different player, she uses to attack from the baseline trying always to get the point in some way finding winners mostly with her backhand that is her better stroke which she misses less and she gets more points, the service instead it's quite normal and as well the forehand not really solid. As well physically she is pretty similar to Shuai Peng, not really fast on the court and according as well the weather condition in IW she might have some kind of problems in the long run playing with less intensity and making more errors, especially if we consider that already yesterday the Chinese played three sets match and today for sure if she wants to find this she had to play a lot against a baseline solid player like Cornet that if in shape might not give you a lot of free pts. In our opinion Alize Cornet has the right solid perfect game to play Zhang, she likes to run on the baseline and try to put always one ball more on the other court, on this way she might force Zhang to make unforced errors and on a long run match in our opinion there will be very few chances for the Chinese. If Zhang would play a perfect match, finding winners and closing this in straight sets easy enough of course she will be the winner, but on all the other circumstances we see widely favourite on this match Alize Cornet for all the characteristics and analysis we said on the top of here and for that confidence B2B on the French.
