****Julie Coin Vs Tamira Paszek****

***Prices with Sportingbet

The Bookies have yet again managed to suck me into this Indian Wells 1st Round clash with the offer of some juicy correct score betting.

Julie Coin Hasnt had the greatest of starts to the year so far, just 2 wins from 8 matches but recently in Monterrey she should some on her abilities when she came back from a set down to defeat Lucie Safarova 5-7 6-4 6-4. Julie Coin is a player who should do well on Hard courts, She has a serve that on its day is as good as many of the top 15 players in the world. Coin has progressed well over the past few years and now sits inside the top 100, Personally i feel she should be a top 50 player with her serve, And at the age of 27 is probably now or never for Coin.

Tamira Paszek reached No.35 in the world back in 2007 but since then for various reason has slipped right down the rankings and now finds herself outside the top 150 in the world. Paszek hasnt won back to back matches yet this year and has very very patchy form, It cant help that at times she seems to start very slowly in matches, If we take a look at the opening set score in all of her matches this year her starts are quite alarming at times.

Auckland:

Match 1 won 6-3

Match 2 Lost 6-0

Hobart:

Match 1 won 6-4

Match 2 Lost 6-1

Australian Open:

Match 1 Lost 6-0

Paris:

Match 1 Lost 6-0

Dubai:

Match 1 Lost 6-1

Match 2 Lost 6-3

So that means out of 8 matches this year Paszek has dropped the opening set in 6 of them matches and out of them 6 matches 3 of which have been 6-0 and 2 have been 6-1 it doesnt make great reading, But brings me to my bet nicely.

Im always pulled in by a big price and as some of you may know i like a punt on 1st set correct score betting, Especially when the stats are to my liking, I was very surprised Sportingbet priced this up as big as they did today, But its worked i suppose as its got me nibbling, I mean come on, a girl that has dropped the opening set 6-0 3 times already this year shouldnt be 80/1 to make it 4 times should she??
