Are a couple very telling stats for this matchup:

1. Clijsters is 8-0 and is 16-0 in sets over Daniela

2. The game spread is -5.5 and Kim has covered that in all 8 matchups

3. Over under is 19.5 and it has gone under in all 8 matchups

 

Only advantage Daniela has is the walkover win last round... allows her to rest up

Kim is a nightmare matchup for Daniella. Kim is one of the best movers on tour and still has power off the groundies to bully. Daniela is a sloth in her movement... she has power off the ground but needs time to setup.... Kim in the past has taken that time away and honestly don't think anything will be different here.

Are alot of options of what to take... -5.5 and/or under 19.5  I would go with whichever has the least chalk.

Good luck everyone

She was hammering the ball against Benesova.  The H2H is telling, form of each player is only thing in question.

Yes, against Benesova, Clijsters hammered the ball.

However, Hantuchova is a different player than Benesova and I doubt that Kim can play with such pressure.

I believe Clijsters will win but I am not sure that the Benesova match can be taken too much into consideration.
Clijsters will just tire her out.

In tennis, I'd never NEVER NEEEEEVEEEEEEEEEER would bet that kinda odds.
It is still a contest of two players and anything can happen. Upsets happen on a regular basis.

Lol@betting -700. Dude, come on man. Why would you even take the risk? To win only a $100?? That would make me get white hairs after every hit of the ball, from the opposite person

Parlay Nada, Federer, Tipsarevic, Clijsters  and Wawrinka

1.5 pays 2.3 ... Decent odds for huge favorites.

Caution!

To me all plays look dangerous except for maybe Clijsters... 

They are favorites, true and chances are they all win like they should but there are so many red flags here. Fed's bad back, Nadal's slump, Wawa's general chokiness...

I'd never play that.

You probably would've said the same thing last night if i posted this.. But that's gambling man, at least by taking huge favorites and parlaying them, you have a better chance of the matches coming through.

Absolutely not. I was on all of those as well yesterday except for Nadal. 
I am not talking about taking great favs. It's about looking at the match up and the players to understand if the odds are justified.
Yesterday that all made sense.

The favs you posted today are shaky at best. Again, they should win, that is why the bookies put them as favs but in my opinion Nadal, Fed and even Wawrinka are far from a sure thing today.

Federers match is pretty tough against Tsonga but I don't see his back playing a role here. I honestly haven't even watched Nadal play but I will take my chances with him. I dont want to risk 150 and parlay a  +400 hoping it hits. Atleast you know if  Nadal loses the 1st set, the chances of him coming back and still winning are high. If he loses it will be really really close...

For what it's worth, I am fading both Fed and Rafa today. Needless to say, small stake.

But back to the topic of the thread: The play for me here is ether the O or the U.
I am undecided and can't make up my mind if Clijsters gets enough momentum to steamroll Hantuchova. 

I guess it's better to stay away when there is no strong feeling one way or the other.

Nadal is dominating the head-to-head series 8-1, including 4-1 on hard courts. If there is any good news for Monfils, though, it's that his lone win over Nadal came in the quarterfinals of this same Doha event in 2009. They most recently faced each other last spring on the clay courts of Barcelona, with Nadal rolling 6-2, 6-2.

This one has all the makings of a blockbuster encounter with both players in fine form. Nadal needed three sets to get past Philipp Kohlschreiber in his 2012 opener but he heated up for impressive wins over Denis Gremelmayr (6-2, 6-2) and Mikhail Youzhny (6-4, 6-4).

Monfils wrapped up his 2011 campaign at a high level and he is showing no sign of slowing down this year. The 16th-ranked Frenchman ousted Rui Machado in straights, survived Benjamin Becker in a tight three-setter, than turned in a masterful performance to beatViktor Troicki 6-2, 6-3.

"Gael is one of the fastest players on tour," said Nadal. "He can play aggressive. He can defend. It's going to be a really tough one."

This one could come down to aggression, with the victor likely being the player who is brave enough to step inside the court and go for winners on a consistent basis. Both men are at their best when they employ those tactics, but they also have a tendency to rely too heavily on their impeccable defensive skills.

Count on a entertaining baseline battle, and don't be surprised if Monfils pulls off a three-set upset.

My book doesn't offer O/U so all I play are moneylines.

Interesting analysis that I just read on Nadal/Monfils


I still have Nadal in my parlay but maybe I'll sprinkle .25 on Monfils.. I say Nadal wins tho .

Hantuchova starts serving, I am going with the O.

Small stake though. Just for fun.

Thanks kush, not a bad analysis. 
I watched the Youzhny match and the score does not really reflect the how it went. It was a lot closer with Nadal winning the important points and most important of all, having a working serve.

He definitely broke a sweat though, ain't the same guy. 

In my opinion Monfis' win was a lot more impressive. Believe it or not, in the second set against Troicki, Monfis actually had himself under control and produced some decent tennis.

However, we are in for two great match up though! Should be good!!

Boom, 3-0 Hantuchova! O is looking good so far... 

Hantuchova is playing brilliantly right now. Learned from Bene's msitakes yesterday and never letting Clijsters into shot range.
