Caroline Garcia vs Bianca Andreescu 6/25/22 Bad Homburg Tennis Picks, Predictions, Odds

Bianca Andreescu and Caroline Garcia meet in the third round of the 2022 tennis French Open.

Bianca Andreescu is coming off a walkover win over Simona Halep, so she should be very rested for this match, considering she’s played less than an hour and a half since Thursday. Andreescu has won all 6 sets this tournament and has won 8 of her last 11 matches overall, easily her best stretch of tennis since returning from her absence. Andreescu has gotten stronger as matches have played out, as she’s won the final set twice in 7 games. Andreescu looks to win her fourth career tittle and first since the 2019 US Open. Andreescu is 3-2 in career final appearances, and this will be her first ever final trip on grass. Andreescu has won 4 of her last 5 matches on grass court.

Caroline Garcia is coming off a 3 sets win over Alize Cornet that took 34 games to decide. In the victory, Garcia won 73 percent of her first serve points and 51 percent of her second serve points. Garcia won 66 percent of her total service points and converted on 2 of her 6 break points. Garcia got 68 percent of her first serves in play and hit 7 aces. Garcia has now won each of her last 3 matches that have gone the distance. Garcia looks to win her eighth title of her career and the first since the 2019 Nottingham Open. Garcia is 7-3 in career final appearances and has won 6 of her last 7 overall. Garcia is 2-0 in career final trips on grass. Garcia has won 5 of her last 6 matches on grass court.

There’s no match history between these two players. 

Garcia is coming off a fabulous performance, so she’s worthy of a look here as the underdog. However, Andreescu is probably playing the better tennis overall these last few weeks, and she has a major rest advantage of not having to play a semifinal match while Garcia played 3 sets.

I have to lean the feisty Andreescu to win the title here.
