Don’t miss our top tennis play for this Sunday’s action in Nottingham with Johanna Konta and Donna Vekic fighting for the Aegon Classic Nottingham title. Bookmakers Review breaks down the fixture below and lists the best available odds from green listed bookmakers.

 

Konta vs. Vekic

The no.1 seed – Johanna Konta – continues her outstanding run in Nottingham. Despite Magdalena Rybarikova’s undeniable quality on grass, the 28-year-old Slovak couldn’t find the answer to Konta’s powerful game style in the semi-finals. Besides her brilliant 76.32% winning record in 2017, Johanna won her previous two finals on the WTA Tour this season in Sydney and Miami.

Despite her lack of success in recent years, Donna Vekic seems ready to take the next step in her career. After reaching the final of her first WTA Tour event back in 2012, the 20-year-old Croatian was tipped as the next big thing. Known as an exceptional grass-court player, Vekic booked a place into the WTA Nottingham final after a three-hour battle against Lucie Safarova.

This will be the 2nd career meeting between these two players with Konta winning their previous encounter at the WTA Cincinnati last year.

Despite Johanna’s lead on the h2h and tremendous success in recent months, it’s hard to find any value on her current betting odds at 29/100 at Pinnacle. On the other hand, Coral offers 3/1 for Vekic to leave Nottingham with the title. Due to the value on Donna’s moneyline, our recommendation is for you to place a bet on the Over 20.5 at 91/100 at William Hill since we expect a much closer contest than the odds suggest.
