Since the margin for total games went from 20 to 21, I've decided to go with the first set over. Even though Riske didn't play since Australia, I'm sure we'll see a close first set. Both players are good servers and the opponent should not be given a lot of opportunities after it. Besides, they play a similar game-style. Zvonareva prefers forehand rallies, just like Riske, and neither makes too many mistakes on backhand either. It is very clear that second service points will decide this match. Zvonareva is a bit better this season but Riska is the kind of opponent she will struggle with and I expect the first set to be decided late and a tie break wouldn't surprise me either. To sum up, I expect an atypical WTA match in which the players will get their chances only on second service return, which suggests a match with very little breaks. You can find better odds (Marathon) but with lower margins.
