Over 1st Set Games: 53.60
The odds for over 53 games in the first set are slightly lower than for under, indicating that a tight first set is anticipated. Kuramochi’s ability to break Shimizu’s serve early could lead to a longer first set, but Shimizu’s defensive skills might keep the game within reach.
Under 1st Set Games: 62.30
With higher odds than the over, this suggests that a quicker first set is more likely. If Shimizu can hold her serve consistently and apply pressure on Kuramochi’s return games, the set could end swiftly.
Tie Break in 1st Set (No): 88.90
The likelihood of avoiding a tie break in the first set is high, suggesting that one player may dominate enough to close out the set before reaching deuce at 6-6. Kuramochi’s powerful game might break through Shimizu’s defenses early.
Tie Break in Match (No): 82.80
This prediction indicates a strong possibility that at least one set will be decided without a tie break. Both players have shown resilience in previous matches, but their ability to close out sets decisively will be crucial.
Under 2.5 Sets: 66.20
The odds favor the match concluding in straight sets, reflecting confidence in both players’ fitness and ability to maintain intensity over three sets. However, any lapse in concentration could extend the match.
Total Games 3-Way (Under 22): 60.10
This bet suggests that the total number of games played across all sets will likely be less than 22. A decisive performance from either player early on could lead to a shorter match.
Total Games 2-Way (Under 22.5): 59.30
With slightly higher odds than the under in three-way betting, this indicates a very tight contest where even a single game can tip the scales. Both players’ mental toughness and strategic adjustments will be key factors.
