Best Tennis Betting Tips Today: Danielle Collins v Sloane Stephens
Things kick off for tennis betting tips today with a look at the in-form Danielle Collins.
After a title on the clay at Palermo, she cruised through her opening match at San Jose in this hard-court tournament.
That was over compatriot Shelby Rogers and it’s another match against a fellow American up next for her.
Collins has now won 9 of her last 10 matches so is running hot.
There have been two previous matches between Collins and Stephens and it’s been one win each from those.
Those two matches were last year.
Sloane Stephens also opened her account at WTA San Jose without having dropped a set.
That was her first match since an early Third Round exit at Wimbledon.
It is the form on hard courts that is really in question for Stephens here. She has lost six of her last eight matches on this surface.
Collins 2-0 set betting at 11/10

Tennis Betting Picks Today: Elise Mertens v Kristina Mladenovic
Tennis betting for today moves on to focus back on Kristina Mladenovic who we have already featured this week.
She claimed a comfortable win in her opening match at San Jose, not dropping a set.
That victory snapped a three-match losing streak that she had been on. The most recent of those was in the opening round of the Olympics.
This is a much tougher match for her against Mertens than her first-round match was.
Mladenovic has lost all but one of her last five matches on hard court surfaces.
Elise Mertens has lost her last two on the hard court.
The Belgian player did have a below-par time of things over the summer on the grass swing of the campaign.
But she is definitely the stronger of the two players in this contest.
Earlier this year she went deep in a hard court tournament in Dubai and we expect to her to come through this challenge.
Mertens 2-0 set betting at 1/2

Tennis for Today: Ajla Tomljanovic v Yulia Putintseva
Today’s Tennis betting tips look at what should be a tight scrap between Ajla Tomljanovic and Yulia Putintseva in California.
Australia’s Tomljanovic had a tricky opener in San Jose, taking out America’s Anna Anisimova.
She needed a deciding set to get that done. Tomljanovic had been the underdog in the match outright for that one.
That fixture saw Tomljanovic move on to a W6 L2 record in her last eight matches.
There has been current form there from her and she will need to be on top of her game in another tough match.
Yulia Puntintseva is carrying good form at the moment and is snake higher in the world than her opponent.
Tomljanovic claimed a title in Budapest last month.
She couldn’t carry that form forward as she was defeated in the first round of the Olympics.
But she got back on track with a comfortable victory in her opening match of this tournament, not dropping a set against Donna Vekic.
Putintseva is 2-1 up in the head to head against Tomljanovic and looks the way to go for tennis betting.
Yulia Putinsteva 10/11
