Henin, a winner here in 2004, is enjoying her return to tennis after a twenty month spell away from the sport and after beating Yanina Wickmayer in the last round said: "Physically it was not easy for me. I missed two years so that's why I love being on the court now.

"It's a great feeling to be back. Everything is going so well."

While everything may be going so well for the Belgian, who is 2/5 to progress to the semi-finals, she will be aware that her opponent on Tuesday has already sent a well-backed Belgian crashing out of the tournament.

26-year-old Petrova has never made it past the quarter-finals before, but was on the top of her game in the third round as she beat Kim Clijsters 6-0 6-1, while she also played some world-class tennis in the last round as she disposed Svetlana Kuznetsova in three sets.

The Russian is 2/1 to reach the semi-finals and while a win over Henin would likely be considered an upset by many, it would be hard to argue against her deserving a place in the last four.

With a semi-final against either Jie Zheng or Maria Kirilenko awaiting the winner here, both Henin and Petrova will be confident that winning here will see them progress to the final, where a likely final against Serena Williams awaits.

Henin has the advantage when it comes to experience in the latter stages of Grand Slam tournaments, and as one of our pre-tournament picks (which were Henin or Clijsters to win the Women's singles, plus Serena Williams to reach the final), we're backing the Belgian to win tonight.

It promises to be an exciting match and could be a close one, so we'll be backing a 2-1 Henin win at 5/2. If you think a straight sets win is out of the question, you can lay a 2-0 Henin win on Betfair at 2.34 (11/8) at time of writing.
