Both these teams are mediocre. When they play against solid teams from top, they loose, and when they play someone like themselves, it's always good to play goals.
Here is last 5 matches:

04/10-08 Jupiler Pro League Westerlo vs. Zulte-Waregem 3:2
02/02-08 Jupiler Pro League Westerlo vs. Zulte-Waregem 1:1
21/04-07 Jupiler Pro League Westerlo vs. Zulte-Waregem 4:2
08/02-06 Cofidis Cup Westerlo vs. Zulte-Waregem 3:0
3:1 (OT)
03/12-05 Jupiler Pro League Westerlo vs. Zulte-Waregem 2:2

As we can see Westerlo won 3 and 2 draws, but only one match was under 2.5.
I can't say who will win, but I hope for over 2.5 7/10!

Good luck!

It's highly likely to see 3 sets today. Phau is playing a solid tournament with 2 wins against very strong players such as Becker and Almagro, both with 2:1 result.
Sam Querrey dropped one set to Gicquel and today he'll probably do the same.
There is the matter of tie break which is likely to happen, so we can expect over 21 even if it stays in 2 sets!
I expect Querrey to win 2:1, but Phau has a good chance too.

They played once before and Phau won!
25/09-08 Beijing, China R16 Asia Hardcourt outdoor Phau, Bjorn 2:1 57 63 64

Good luck!

Carolina Wozniacki is back. She won first leg with 6:0 6:0 against mediocre Gallowits, and she is very much improving her form before US Open. Two of them never played before and there is not much to expect from Pavlyuchenkova, who beaten Makorova in first leg (6:3 6:3).
I predict an easy win with handicap from 6-8 points for Carolina Wozniacki!
In any case, a sure win 10/10 and a handicap just for competition 8/10!

Good luck!

This is a hunch bet. Simon is variable this year to say the least, and I feel he is getting back his form. He likes the crowd, likes this tournament, and he can go far.
Tsonga is the kind that can beat anyone and everyone, but this is just not his tournament. His game is good, but we've seen him do a lot better.

They played 2 times now, and it's one all!

31/03-09 Miami, USA R16 America Hardcourt outdoor Tsonga, Jo-Wilfried 1:2 76 36 26
06/05-08 Rome, Italy R64 Europe red clay Simon, Gilles 2:1 62 46 76

Good luck!

Svetlana is a solid player, but never really good after the summer break. She needs time to get back on the track, and Kim will surely take advantage of that.
Kim Clijsters worked hard this year and she is definitly back, and here to stay.
Kim played Svetlana 6 times and she leads 5:1!

09/11-06 Sony Ericsson Championships, Madrid Red Group Clijsters, Kim 2:0 61 61
07/05-06 J&S Cup, Warsaw, Poland Final Europe Clay Clijsters, Kim 2:0 75 62
17/06-05 The Hastings Direct Int. Champ., Eastbourne Semifinals Europe Grass Clijsters, Kim 2:1 64 36 64
30/04-05 J&S Cup, Warsaw Semifinals Asia Clay Kuznetsova, Svetlana 1:2 62 26 36
29/08-03 US Open, New York America Hard Clijsters, Kim 2:0 63 62
08/08-03 JP Morgen Chase Open, Los Angeles America Hard Clijsters, Kim 2:0 63 61

We could say that Svetlana is the kind of player that suits Kim very well.
So, even tough this can easily backfire, I think 2:0 win for Kim is somewhat to be expected.

Good luck!

Things are really good for Spain. They have probably one of the best teams today, and they play against mediocre Macedonia. Yes it's Macedonian football anniversary, but they have a lot of issues. Yesterday they had a fight on the practice, and team is in a lot of trouble both in play and from fans.
I really don't think they will be able to make much of a ressistance, so 2:0 for Spain sounds just about right.

Good luck!

Sharapova made some good comeback matches, and she is getting there form-vise. Curently she is #61 but she will finish this year in top 25 for sure.
Pennetta is one of my favorite players, and when she is in form, she beats the best, and lets face it Sharapova is long way from best.
Twice they played and both won Sharapova but look at the dates...

03/07-06 Wimbledon, England R16 Europe Grass Sharapova, Maria 2:1 76 36 63
13/03-04 Pacific Life Open, Indian Wells R64 America Hard Sharapova, Maria 2:1 63 46 64

I belive we'll have a good match on our hands, and I hope for Flavia to win!

Good luck!
