THE PREDICTION
This could be the best match of the day between former number four Caroline Garcia and former number three Maria Sakkari but, whatever you do, leave it as far away from an accumulator as possible. Garcia and Sakkari have peaked and troughed wildly over the past few seasons on tour, both possessing intense, ruthlessly powerful games at their best but both, also, well capable of self-sabotage when the pressure is on. 30-year-old Garcia snapped a four-match losing streak with an unconvincing three-setter over Viktorya Tomova on Saturday whilst 28-year-old Sakkari came back from a set down to beat up-and-comer Diana Shnaider for her best win of what has been a poor year so far. Sakkari has won each of their three encounters last season to tie their head-to-head 3-3, although Garcia won two of her three the season before when she was last at her best. Back Sakkari to earn at least a set to leave the victor up to chance but, better still, leave this likely madcap clash alone altogether.
TIP: MARIA SAKKARI TO WIN A SET
