Petra Kvitova vs Ekaterina Alexandrova Best Bet: Wednesday, March 29th

Well, I continue to destroy any and all good wagering with these writeups as the end of March can’t come fast enough! Julia Grabher, despite being far more talented and playing consistently at a far higher level, was abysmal on Tuesday in San Luis Potosi. I’m not sure I’ve seen more unforced errors hit in a match in my time watching the sport.

For Thursday’s women’s article, we’ll go back to Miami, where the quarterfinals wrap up from the women’s draw.

Let’s delve into the matchup featuring Petra Kvitova and Ekaterina Alexandrova.

Petra Kvitova vs Ekaterina Alexandrova Preview

March 30th, 00:00 (UK Time)

Shocked to see the Czech priced above 1.50 in this scenario. She matches up fairly well with her Russian counterpart, with her big power game that can be susceptible to unforced errors.

That is also what Alexandrova brings to the table, but without nearly as big of a serve and without as much power – the kind that can overwhelm opponents.

Further, we’ve seen Kvitova reach the upper echelons of the game for quite some time on hard courts. Her pedigree and experience far outweigh that of Alexandrova, and even this year, the form points in her direction.

This is the first time that Alexandrova has reached a quarterfinal so far in 2023, while Kvitova has done so in Adelaide, as well as at Indian Wells – where the conditions were not her friend.


Petra Kvitova vs Ekaterina Alexandrova Best Bet

The only concern with backing Kvitova in Miami is her history with having issues in heat and humidity.

Luckily, we’ve seen her come through three matches in Miami already in the last week, and this match will also feature in the night session, which alleviates further concerns, as it won’t be played in the hottest or sunniest conditions of the day.

With more power, a better serve and much better hard-court pedigree, as well as the primary concern for the veteran being tempered, I’m happy to back her in this spot.

  • Selection: Kvitova to Win
  • Best Odds: 1.64 (Pinnacle)
  • Stakes: 3/10

Odds as at 2:00 am on March 29th, 2023. Odds may now differ.
