Mirza vs Morita Betting: Sania Mirza can defeat Ayumi Morita in the Pattaya Open
The Pattaya Open might not be the most prestigious tournament around, but the line-up still features the likes of Vera Zvonareva, Daniela Hantuchova or Dominika Cibulkova, so we should see some interesting encounters in Thailand as well. The first round should definitely see some exciting match-ups and I am going to take a closer look at the one between Sania Mirza and Ayumi Morita.
Sania Mirza has not done much in the singles department recently, but her doubles results make up for that and she should be able to show that form on Tuesday. She is a hugely talented player, but it seems that she is horribly inconsistent and her ranking suffers as a result of that. Nonetheless, she can play well on reasonably quick hard courts and I can see her out-muscling Morita quite easily.
The world's number sixty-four had to play in the Fed Cup over the weekend and her results were hardly convincing. She should have lost against Polona Hercog and even Nastja Kolar took her to the decider on Saturday. She can be really good on one day and annoyingly poor on another one, so there is no reason for her to be priced at 1.45 in this match. She will have to defend really well in order to beat Sania Mirza and I am just not convinced that she can do that right now.
2.96 definitely looks like value to me and I am willing to have a small play at those odds. Both girls are playing poorly at the moment, so there is no reason to prefer one over the another by such a huge margin. Anything can happen in this encounter and Morita is simply overrated by the bookies in my opinion.
