For whatever reason Ana Ivanovic has admitted to feeling comfortable playing against Venus Williams in the round of 16 at Wimbledon on Monday June 29th. 

Taking a look at the two players, their head to head meetings, and their Wimbledon history,  it is really hard to figure why Ivanovic should have any confidence at all against Venus.

Ivanovic has only beaten Williams once in 6 matches and that was at the 2008 Australian Open. Every other time, including in 2007 at Wimbledon, Williams has won.

Not only that but Ivanovic does not have a history of success here at Wimbledon that comes close to mirroring the success of Venus Williams.
 
The best Ivanovic has done in past years at Wimbledon is making the semifinals, which shows she's not a pushover on the grass court surface, but has nothing on Venus' past success.

Venus Williams has been cruising through her matches this year while Ana Ivanovic was almost defeated in the first round by Lucie Hradecka before winning in the third set 8-6.

There is no reason for Ivanovic to feel comfortable here at all and the only recommendation for punters would be to pick Venus Williams at 1/6 with bet365.
