BARBORA KREJCIKOVA VS ELENA RYBAKINA PREDICTION
A former Wimbledon Doubles champion, Barbora Krejcikova has been staking a claim to add the Singles title to her résumé this time around. The Czech star impressively defeated the in-form Jelena Ostapenko in the quarter-finals, and she has not dropped a set since her first-round victory over Veronika Kudermetova.
Having also just lost the one set on her route to the semi-finals, Elena Rybakina has been laying down a marker herself, with the bookies making the 2022 champion the firm favourite to go all the way again this year. Elina Svitolina was the former champion’s victim in the quarter-final, and it will take some performance to prevent the number four seed from adding to her trophy cabinet.
Although Krejcikova has won both of the previous matches between the two, neither were on grass, where Rybakina undoubtedly has the edge. The current world number four’s one area of concern is the relatively unimpressive 51% first serve statistic that she has produced in her last two matches, but her overall game is in such good shape that she has to be made favourite here.
