The Bad Homburg Open is down to the final four, and the first semifinal of the day will bring Diana Shnaider and Emma Navarro together with the American as the favorite. 

Navarro carries the 19th ranking on the WTA Tour into today’s semifinal in Germany, and at -175 the line setters expect Emma to advance to the final in this WTA500 event.

Shnaider is playing in only her sixth tournament on grass in her career, and EJ Garr’s Diana Shnaider vs Emma Navarro prediction features odds at +149 to end the week with a bang.

Diana Shnaider vs Emma Navarro Prediction: We’re Going the Distance in Germany

  • Prediction: Match Total Over 2.5 Sets
  • Best Odds: +149
  • Bookmaker: Pinnacle
  • Stakes: 3/10

Odds as of 7:00 am UK Time June 28, 2024. Odds may now differ.

Emma Navarro entered this tournament as the 3-seed at Bad Homburg and has reached the semifinal for the second consecutive campaign. Navarro was at this stage a year ago but failed to get past Kat Siniakova so she gets another crack today against Shnaider.

Navarro is listed as the favorite but the first thing that came to mind was my favorite prop bet to put on the board. All I see in my mind is each woman taking a set and we all get to watch a 3-set thriller.

Diana Shnaider might be ranked 47th in the world but she is still only 20 years old with a lifetime of tennis left to play. She was listed as a +150 underdog against Badosa in the quarterfinal, and she pulled off the upset in straight sets.

Shnaider was only broken twice while smashing out 4 aces against Badosa, and not only did she break the Spaniard 4 times but the second set tie-break showed us all a lot. Badosa is not the player she used to be, but Shnaider was in complete control of the tie-break to take the quarterfinal dub.

I expect a solid effort from both of these ladies today, and we will be going the distance because two sets won’t be enough. The Over 2.5 Sets prop at +149 holds all the value to end the week, and I am making up for Boulter’s loss yesterday at Eastbourne which was a bit of a shocker.


DIANA SHNAIDER RECENT FORM

Diana Shnaider held a record of 1 – 3 on grass over her career until this season. At 5 – 2, Shnaider is following up a 9 – 4 clay swing with a Paris Challenger title.

Shnaider is 27 – 13 overall in 2024 and has 7 career doubles titles, although she and Vesnina were bounced from Bad Homberg yesterday. 


EMMA NAVARRO RECENT FORM

Emma Navarro entered her first grass event at Wimbledon in 2019 and went 4 – 1 in her only tournament that season. 

Navarro didn’t see the grass court again until last year, and she reeled off a 7 – 3 record.

Emma is 36 – 14 overall in 2024 and has one title she claimed at Hobart in January.


SHNAIDER VS NAVARRO HTH –  STAT OF THE MATCH

In that 2019 Wimbledon appearance for Navarro, one of her four wins was against Diana Shnaider in straight sets.

The two met again this year at the Paris Challenger Finals, and Shnaider returned the favor in 3 sets to take the hardware.
