THE PREDICTION

World number seven Maria Sakkari lost yet another semi-final last week at the Linz Open, to eventual runner-up Petra Martic, but she reacted well on Tuesday with an eye-catching three-set victory over in-form Qinwen Zheng. The 27-year-old is still chasing more than just her solitary Rabat Open title from 2019 as she continues to struggle with capitalising on deep runs but she is at least putting herself in the mix on most occasions. World number 18 Ekaterina Alexandrova claimed two of her career-total three WTA titles last season in her best year on tour so far but she has struggled to match that intensity in 2023. However, the Russian thrashed Karolina Pliskova to the tune of just three games conceded on Tuesday and that should boost her confidence as she faces an uphill climb in this head-to-head. Sakkari leads Alexandrova 3-1 at tour level after winning both of their meetings in straight sets last season but backing the Greek to come through outright looks the suitably cautious move here.
