Swiatek vs Liu Prediction & Pick

It's hard to overstate just how dominant Switaek has been when playing on a clay court. She has posted a 43-5 record on that surface across the last three years and has also captured two French Open titles in that span. Asking Liu to rise to that level of competition is a bit too much this time.

More 2023 French Open betting coverage from The Duel:

The fact that Swiatek crushed Liu in a two-set victory (6-0, 6-1) under three months ago strengthens Swiatek's chances of cruising on Thursday morning. Liu is only 2-5 on clay courts in 2023 and is playing past the first round of a grand slam tournament for just the sixth time. Fade that inexperience.

Winner: Iga Swiatek

Swiatek vs Liu Best Bet

Swiatek is a massive favorite on Thursday, meaning bettors looking to get in on the action will have to dive deep to find valuable plays. One that sticks out is backing a set to end in a 6-0 score. After all, Swiatek captured a 6-0 win in one of her two first-round sets against Bucsa as well as in one of her two sets against Liu in their most recent head-to-head meeting. She has the skill set to pull it off.
