THE PREDICTION
Currently world number 14 Anett Kontaveit is arguably the most in-form woman on tour and her fight back from a set and a break down to beat Ekaterina Alexandrova at the Kremlin Cup last Sunday was nothing short of exemplary. The Estonian is back up to her career-high WTA ranking after winning three tournaments this season, and unofficially four after sharing the cancelled Grampians Trophy final with Ann Li at the start of the year. The 25-year-old is yet to drop a set this week at the Transylvania Open, like eighth seed Anhelina Kalinina, but this first meeting looks like going only one way. Kontaveit to win in straight sets seems a reasonable pick here, with world number 59 Kalinina needing a career-best performance to oust this unstoppable force.
