It is known that Serena and Simona have created a nice rivalry in the last year. They have played twice at the end of the year in Singapore (World Tour Finals for WTA) where Halep won 6-0 6-2 in the group stage, while Serena won the final 6-3 6-0.
Serena has perfect record in 2015 11/0 and won the Australian Open defeating Van Uytvanck, Zvonareva, Svitolina, Muguruza, Cibulkova, Keys and Sharapova. Here in Indian Wells she defeated Niculescu (having a hard time), Diyas easily, Stephens in deciding se and Bacsinsky hardly.
Halep has a almost perfect record in 2015 with a stunning 18/1, winning the tournaments in Shenzhen and Dubai and got into the Australian Open QF, where she lost to Makarova. Here in Indian Wells she played against Gavrilova, Lepchenko, Pliskova and Suarez-Navarro... three of them where matches decided in a 3rd set. I am eager to see how Halep and her new co-coach will prepare this match. I saw that Simona found the solution to each opponent "zone" (the place when a player can't miss).
Halep defeated her last year and I think that the slow conditions of Indian Wells can be a plus for my compatriot.
Halep has a 30% chance in my opinion and I am happy to take the 3.48 price offered by Pinnacle.
