Kremlin Cup Semi FInal: Safina v Zvonareva

Tournament: Kremlin Cup, Moscow, Semi-Final
Court: Indoor / Carpet
Prices: Betfair

Zvonareva: 2.60

Safina: 1.61

In this price bracket Safina is +5.16. As an underdog Zvonareva is +0.87. Recent match ups favour Zvonareva, but I would have to still throw my support here to Safina. Again I think it will come down to who handles the big occassion better and I would have to suggest that will be Safina - who will also benefit from having played one match fewer so far than Zvonareva. That's not to say I have not been very impressed with Zvonareva's play in this tournament where she has dispatched her opponents very clinically so far, even if they might not have been the tours toughest or most inform foes. I would think the outcome of this match will be similar to that of the Q-final with Kuznetsova, whom I believe poses about the same level of threat to Safina.

Pick: SAFINA 3 pts @ 1.61
