The semi-finals of the Indian Wells may look a bit different to the seasoned sports betting fan, but that doesn’t mean that we won’t see exciting tennis!
Venus Williams is a delight to watch throughout the tournament, making fans and opponents remember the rampage she and her sister caused when they were still younger. She has been thrilling crowds and became a favourite among betting websites and the local crowd to take home the crown.
With Simona Halep playing inconsistently as of late, that is a huge possibility. And everyone knows that a motivated Williams is a dangerous Williams!
BNP Paribas Open Women’s Singles SF
Simona Halep vs Naomi Osaka
Halep is not having a wonderful time in California as she struggles to win over her competition. Should she keep playing like this, she will have a tough time playing against Osaka.
The 20-year-old cruised through Maria Sharapova and convincingly beat Karolina Pliskova in straight sets. While I still think that experience will help the Romanian through, I think Osaka will shock her once more.
Underdogs have been thriving in major tournaments so far, so I’m not shy to recommend Osaka’s 2.66 Money Line odds.
Venus Williams vs Daria Kasatkina
The California crowd will all be behind Venus Williams as she faces a young upstart in Daria Kasatkina.
The 20-year-old Russian has been nothing short of impressive after beating Sloane Stephens, Caroline Wozniacki and Angelique Kerber in straight sets. She has all the tools needed to take down the 37-year-old veteran out of Lynwood, CA.
However, Venus has also won almost all of her matches in straight sets. She beat sister Serena and cruised through her quarter-final match against Carla Suarez Navarro. Venus’ power strikes should still hold some impact against her opponent.
This has the makings of a classic, and I see Williams heading straight to the Finals. Williams 2.04 Money Line is the most tempting punt to make with regards to this game.
