On Monday, at the WTA event in Cincinnati, we're going to see a top-10 player in action. Linda Noskova will do battle against Clara Tauson. A quick glance at the rankings and you could be forgiven for assuming that this is a match that Noskova should win, though the Czech player has never beaten Clara Tauson, who is very capable of competing against the best on hard surfaces.
Looking at the early lines, at -137, Clara Tauson is definitely worth betting on to avoid a straight set defeat, at the very least. The Dane knows how to compete in matches of this nature, while she has a very strong record against Linda Noskova, so she could (and should) be a shorter price here, especially as she's only lost one of her last 14 hard-court matches in straight sets.

Our Linda Noskova vs Clara Tauson Prediction
Linda Noskova is the world number eight, so she's a very strong player, there can be no denying that, but she's only had two hard-court matches since the end of the grass-court season, winning just one of those. Moreover, she's won only one of her last four hard-court matches, which she lost when she last came up against Clara Tauson, who has a 100% record against the Czech player. On that basis, the Dane is generously priced to pick up one or more sets.
Our Linda Noskova vs Clara Tauson Pick: Clara Tauson +1.5 Set Handicap.
