This Wimbledon tennis betting preview looks at one of the more intriguing games from Tuesday’s matches from the women’s draw.
Alize Cornet will face former Grand Slam champion Bianca Andreescu in a cracker.
There doesn’t appear to be too much to choose between the two players, but it is Canada’s Andreescu who is the narrow favourite.

Alize Cornet Preview – Can Cornet do the business?
This should be a great game and Alize Cornet does bring a little bit of grass court form to the table.
Earlier this month she made a run to the semi finals of a grass court tournament in Berlin, Germany.
She was beaten there by Belinda Bencic.
However, during that run she did claim a victory over Tuesday’s opponent Brianca Andreescu in the second round.
Also at that same tournament, Cornet took a win over former Wimbledon champion Garbine Muguruza.
So that’s some home form from the Frenchwoman.
In the match outright for Wimbledon tennis betting, Cornet is the 6/5 underdog* (odds taken 04:48 GMT on June 28th 2021).
Following that run in Berlin, Corner did appear at Bad Homburg last week and was eliminated in the second round.
That was against second seed Victoria Azarenka, Cornet bowing out on a deciding set tie break, so it was close.
The recent meeting between Cornet and Andreescu in Berlin was the first time that the two players had met.
Does the World Number 58 have Wimbledon form?
Not so much. There has been a First Round exit from Cornet in each of her last three appearances at Wimbledon.
At this year’s Australian Open, Cornet was defeated in the second round, while she bowed out in the first round at Roland Garros.
But we do think that she has a chance in this one.
A Cornet +1.5 handicap is an interesting Wimbledon Tennis betting option at evens* (odds taken 04:48 GMT on June 28th 2021)
Bianca Andreescu Preview – Can Canada’s Andreescu find some form?
2019 US Open winner Bianca Andreescu has had some injury problems since then.
She missed all Grand Slam tournaments last year.
Andreescu has been on the road to recovery this season but has yet to find the kind of form that led her to that title at Flushing Meadows.
At this year’s Australian Open, the first Slam since the 2019 US Open, Andreescu lost in the second round, before a first round exit at Roland Garros.
In the match outright for this tennis betting fixture, Andreescu is the 4/6 odds-on favourite* (odds taken 04:48 GMT on June 28th 2021).
So for that, we need to look at what the Canadian’s current form is like.
Her big run this year was reaching the final of the Miami Open in early April where she retired against Ashleigh Barty.
Since then, there have been struggles from Andreescu to get deep into tournaments, including having another retirement in Strasbourg.
It has been one victory in her last four matches now, including that one against Cornet.
The most recent action that Andreescu had was at Eastbourne where she lost in straight sets to Annett Kontaveit in the second round.
So we feel that she will be under pressure in this.

Bianca Andreescu is not back there in terms of form or full fitness yet. Because of that we think it may be worth taking her on in Wimbledon tennis betting.
This will actually only be the second appearance by Andreescu at Wimbledon.
She made her tournament debut in 2017 and was defeated in the first round. So that experience on the courts at SW19 isn’t there like it is for Cornet either.
Andreescu is a top-quality player and still ranked 7th in the world despite several injury setbacks over the last year or so.
This isn’t the easiest opener for her.

So that’s enough for us to go to the position of backing her to come up with the goods.
he straight Cornet To Win in the match outright is at 6/5* (odds taken 04:48 GMT on June 28th 2021)
