THE PREDICTION
World number four Maria Sakkari should be gearing up for a successful last third of the season as her best surface dominates proceedings here on in. The 27-year-old reached the semi-finals of the US Open last season before losing to eventual champion Emma Raducanu and she should be targeting more titles with just one claimed so far from the 2019 Rabat Open. Both Sakkari and Sloane Stephens have set career-high WTA world rankings of third in their careers, with 29-year-old Stephens doing so after winning the US Open in 2017. The world number 59 is just as, if not more, inconsistent as Sakkari on tour but a three-set victory over Sofia Kenin on Monday should boost her confidence. The American has the better recent form after reaching the quarter-finals of Roland-Garros back in June but this match could go anywhere from a straight-sets blast – for either player – to a deciding tiebreak. Leave this match out of an accumulator but with a win under her belt take Stephens to earn at least a set from this first meeting with the Greek.
