We’ve reached the decisive day with Karolina Pliskova and Caroline Wozniacki facing each other at the Aegon International Eastbourne final. Bookmakers Review breaks down the fixture below and lists the best available odds from green listed bookmakers.
Pliskova vs. Wozniacki
The 2009 Aegon International champion – Caroline Wozniacki – returns to the decisive match in Eastbourne. Known as one of the greatest defenders in the game, Wozniacki holds an outstanding 68.18% winning record on grass. Despite her brilliant 35 – 15 record this season, the former world no.1 lost her previous three finals in 2017. Adding to this, Caroline reaches this stage of the competition after more than two hours on court against Heather Watson.
Karolina Pliskova couldn’t have asked for an easier task in the semi-finals. After playing two matches in the previous day, the 2016 Aegon International runner-up moved straight to the final in Eastbourne after Johanna Konta’s withdrawal due to an injury. Taking a look now at Karolina’s campaign on this event, the 25-year-old Czech fired an impressive average of 0.75 aces per service game.
This will be the 6th career meeting between these two players with Wozniacki leading on the h2h by 4 – 1.
Despite Caroline’s lead on the h2h, Pliskova is the main favourite to win this match at 7/10 at Pinnacle while Wozniacki is available at 13/10 at Bet365. Although we understand Karolina’s favouritism, Wozniacki is a terrible match-up for the Czech. For that reason, it’s hard to find any value on Pliskova’s tennis betting odds. With this in mind, our suggestion is for you to place a bet on the Over 21.5 at 4/5 at Bet365 since we expect a very close affair on this Saturday’s final in Eastbourne.
