Eastbourne International has entered the semi-final zone. Daria Kasatkina and Jasmine Paolini will face each other on June 28, 2024, on a grass court. While Paolini has a better record in head-to-head contests, she is likely to feel the heat of defeat due to her perceived lack of fondness for the type of court that lies ahead. Daria Kasatkina has an above-average money line.
They have met four times before. Jasmine leads the chart by 3-1 on the WTA level; however, those meetings were on clay. Their last match was at the Palermo Open.
One reason why Daria is leading the race of predictions is because of her capability to go flat and slice every shot that comes her way. Not that Jasmine lacks those skills, but her perfection comparatively draws a lower line. Kasatkina only suffers from a lack of confidence because she has lost to her upcoming opponent three times. An ideal goal could be to forgive and move on. An early attack would put pressure on Jasmine—enough to retain momentum in other sets.
Daria’s average money line is sourced from some of the best tennis betting sites. This is not a guaranteed outcome and is merely a prediction. The actual result of the second semi-final in the Eastbourne International may be different, with Paolini emerging victorious. It is important to place bets only as per one’s capacity, so that there is no dent in their finances.
Paolini is returning after a win over Boulter. The final tally was 6-1 and 7-6 in her favor, with the last set seeing a massive fightback from her opponent. Jasmine ended the tennis event by banking 79 points over 60 and winning 13 games, letting Boulter take home 7 games with her.
Kasatkina was rather exceptional. Her advancement to the next stage was seamless, with a final tally of 6-2 and 6-2 against Eaducanu. Jasmine won 12 games and banked 65 points. The gap was more than visible, as Eaducanu was restricted to winning just 4 games for 46 points.
A semi-final contest between Daria Kasatkina and Jasmine Paolini will happen after Fernandez and Keys have entertained their fans, with only one delivering happiness back to her respective domestic zone. Men’s singles has also entered the Semis of the Eastbourne International Tennis Tournament. Fritz & Vukic will lock horns after there is a verdict for a match between Purcell & Harris.
As for Women’s Singles Paolini did overpower her previous competitor, but the battle is now fierce. She has positive momentum on her side, as evidenced by the head-to-head stat against Kasatkina. She just needs to overcome her grass court phobia at play. The first set could paint a picture for their contest and probably deliver a hint about where the game is going and who advances to the finals of the Eastbourne International Tennis Tournament.
