The third and final match that I'm interested in from a betting point of view at the WTA event in Montreal, Canada on Friday sees Clara Tauson take on Yulia Starodubtseva. The Danish player, who now finds herself ranked inside the top 20, made light work of beating the lower-ranked Lucia Bronzetti during the previous round, winning in straight sets. Another performance like that and she'll almost certainly be sailing into the next round. It's fair to say that Tauson isn't always consistent on this surface, but her recent form against players of Starodubtseva's quality is strong, that's for sure. The Ukrainian will be hoping to cause an upset following her second-round win against Magdalena Frech, which came after her first-round win against Yafan Wang, but she'll need to find another gear, maybe another two gears, and I'm just not convinced she can do that.Limited Offer.

Our Clara Tauson vs Yuliia Starodubtseva Prediction
Is this a match that Clara Tauson should be losing? Absolutely not. In fact, this really is a match that the world number 19 should be winning without the need for a third set, and given the early odds, she's worth betting on to do just that. Her opponent has been in decent form of late, but she isn't as fresh as the Dane, who looked in very good form when brushing aside Lucia Bronzetti in straight sets last time out. That win against a player who holds a similar ranking to Yulia Starodubtseva points towards a straightforward victory here. Our Clara Tauson vs Yulia Starodubtseva Pick: Clara Tauson to Win 2-0.
