Qualifier Luca Udvardy opens first-round play at the Bellinzona ITF event on Wednesday as the favorite when she takes on Tina Nadine Smith.

Luca Udvardy vs Tina Smith WTA75 Bellinzona ITF Prediction: We’re Going The Distance

• Prediction: Match Total Over 2.5 Sets
• Best Odds: +142
• Bookmaker: Pinnacle
• Stakes: 3/10

Odds as of 7:00 am UK Time on April 9, 2025. Odds may now differ.

Tina Nadine Smith calls Switzerland home these days, and the 22-year-old Australian native enjoys dual citizenship, residing in Meggen.

That won’t give Smith any advantage against Luca Udvardy, but it will motivate her to play her best tennis. Taking a set from Udvardy is all I am asking, because at -200, we can assume Udvardy will do her part to take a set in this match.

You can’t cover a -200 line without the win, but it will be interesting to see how the momentum carries Udvardy into this event. The younger sister of Panna Udvardy is playing doubles with her sibling in this event, and they are both in the singles competition. Panna is the 3-seed in this WTA75 ITF event, taking on Lisa Pigato in the opening round today.

Udvardy looked comfortable winning the WTA15 Aliminos 2 ITF event on March 23rd, but the Hungarian hasn’t played since then. That could lead to a slow start for the young Hungarian, and Smith enjoyed some success on clay a year ago. 

It all adds up to a match that takes three sets to decide the victor, and Pinnacle offers +142 odds for the Over 2.5 sets prop. That’s right, we’re going the distance and taking advantage of a reasonable line for the effort.

This is Smith’s first match on clay this year, so it will also take her a minute or two to get comfortable on a new surface. This game could be sloppy early, but it will all lead to an exciting three-set affair.
