Rebecca Marino vs Tatjana Maria Tips

I’ll side with Tatjana Maria. Her experience, defensive abilities, and tactical adjustments should allow her to maintain composure and seize control during the crucial stages.

Marino is the underdog to take. She is 2-1 against Maria in three matches they played. She won both matches on hard surface where her game is the best.

Rebecca Marino 3 of 6 wins in 10 games on the hard court and Tatjana Maria 4 of 6 losses in 10 games on the hard court have been by set scores of 2-0.

Neither player was great in their previous round wins, but their opponents did everything to lose. Maria is the more accomplished player of the two and higher ranked as well. I will play her in 3 sets.

Rebecca Marino is leading 2-1 in 3 head-to-head matches. The Canadian is a better hard court player, and both her wins over Maria came on this surface. I think she can win as an underdog, let's say 2-1.

The German has won two of the three head-to-head matches, and I am tipping this will play out similar to how last year's grass court meeting did in the UK. Tatjana Maria won that match in three sets, and my tip is her higher ranking and experience will see her getting the win tonight in Guadalajara.

Rebecca Marino beat Martina Trevisan, an experienced Italian player. She has a similar challenge in another veteran of the sport, Maria. I like the plus games handicap on the younger Canadian.
