What a match this is going to be! First of all, what is Sabalenka doing at -350? 

I am sorry but if you want to disrespect Qinwen Zheng and give me +4.5 to put in my pocket, I’ll just say thank you and walk away!

So far, so good for Sabalenka who had no double faults against Hon in the opener, only 1 DF against Bronzetti although the World’s #2 struggled with compatriot Alexandrova. Saba committed four DFs and lost the first set badly to Alexandrova before mounting the comeback to reach the fourth round.

Qinwen has reached back-to-back quarterfinal appearances at teh US Open and the World’s #7 has been involved with three affairs that have gone the distance from four wins in New York.

This year’s Austraiian Open finaliist is chasing her first Slam title and if in form matters I’ll point out later that 17 – 1 in your last 18 matches with an Olympic Gold Medal around your neck oozes confidence for Zheng!

Zheng and the +4.5 is the play to make at -109!

QINWEN ZHENG RECENT FORM

REVENGE is powerful emotion and Qinwen has plenty of that on her mind today. Sabalenka beat Zheng in the final of this year’s Austrailian Open!

Qinwen Zheng was 17  – 4 on clay this year, and that includes a little gold piece of hardware from Paris in the name of an Olympic Gold Medal. Zheng is 17 – 1 in her last 18 outings with one loss at Cincinnati to Pavlyuchenkova in the run.

Qinwen is 17 – 7 on hardcourts this season and has a 37 – 13 record in 2024.

ARYNA SABALENKA RECENT FORM

Sabalenka reached the semifinals at the US Open in 2021, 2022 and one step better last year reaching the finals of the New York Major Tournament.

Aryna didn’t appear in Wimbledon this season but she has reached the quarters in three of the four Majors including the title run to start the year in Austrailia.

Sabalenka is 27 – 6 on hardcourts this season and she is fress off her run to the Cincinnati title claiming title #2 on the campaign.

ZHENG VS SABALENKA HTH –  STAT OF THE MATCH

Revenge is a dish best served cold and Qinwen Zheng could be out to get some today! (0 – 2)

The only reason Zheng isn’t a Major title holder is because Sabalenka took her down in humiliating fashion in this year’s Austrailian Open final, 6 – 1, 6 – 1.

These two met for the first time last year on this stage of the quartefinals of the US Open, and Aryna beat Zheng down, 6 – 1, 6 – 4.
