Our Caroline Dolehide vs Nikola Bartunkova Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Nikola Bartunkova defeats Caroline Dolehide 6-3, 6-4
Nikola Bartunkova opened at -174 moneyline, yet she offers a more lucrative value proposition in the alternative spread market, where you can back her as high as -6.5 games (+490).
Bartunkova certainly has a top-50 potential or maybe top-20, depending on the rate of her growth. Against the struggling Dolehide, Bartunkova is expected to dominate right from the get-go, baffling the American with her aggressive and unpredictable style of play that features drop shots and tactical placements of the ball. While I would not recommend you bet on her at -6.5 games, you can still get a fairly solid deal at -3.5 games (+105).
Our betting prediction for Nikola Bartunkova vs. Caroline Dolehide: Nikola Bartunkova -3.5 Games (Alternative Game Spread)
