Venus Williams’ edge (-225):
However, the World No. 8 could be in deep trouble against another uprising star in Daria Kasatkina, who defeated Williams in their only head-to-head meeting at Auckland this year.
Well, there’s really no point for Williams to look back on that. The veteran’s focus should be on garnering all the energy she can and make sure to be as consistent as possible with her service and return game. Plus, she’s also got to limit her errors.
Daria Kasatkina’s edge (+175):
Daria Kasatkina is still lacking in experience, but that shouldn’t be too much of a problem for her in this third-round meeting with the eighth-seeded Venus Williams.
Kasatkina, who has successfully reached the third round in every major she’s competed in, can compensate for it through her service game, speed and relentless aggression. The 19-year-old Russian sensation’s won 75 percent of her first serve points, 74 percent of her net points and converted 9-of-12 break point opportunities in her first two matches at Wimbledon 2016.
Also, the longer the match takes, the more favorable it is for Kasatkina to reign supreme. That’s mainly because Williams’ body might not have enough gas in the tank to play through beyond three or four sets.
