Two Ukrainian players will go up against each other at the WTA event in Cincinnati on Friday. It's Daria Snigur versus Yulia Putintseva. Of the two players, it is Snigur who has impressed in recent times, with the 24-year-old recently reaching the final of the hard-court event in Prague, Czechia. Such form bodes well ahead of a match against an out-of-form opponent.
A quick glance at the early betting lines and we can see that Daria Snigur is strongly fancied to defeat her compatriot. However, can we make a case for the higher-ranked player being an even stronger favorite? Absolutely. Even at odds of -189, which are available at a few sportsbooks at the time of writing, Snigur looks generously priced, such is her superiority here.

Our Daria Snigur vs Yuliia Starodubtseva Prediction
There's a serious contrast in how these two players have been performing. Since leaving the grass-court game behind, Daria Snigur has stepped on the gas, winning four out of five on hard courts, which is far better than the form delivered by Yulia Starodubtseva, who enters this match having lost five on the bounce. Her two recent hard-court defeats have come against players currently ranked below Snigur, which does not suggest that she's about to stop the rot and regain winning ways.
The higher-ranked of these two Ukrainian players looks to have a clear edge over her opponent, an edge that is big enough for us to conclude that she's well worth betting on at anything bigger than -225.
