THE PREDICTION

World number 28 Donna Vekic enjoyed an encouraging run to the semi-finals of the Linz Open last week, taking the first set form eventual runner-up Ekaterina Alexandrova before just losing out via two tiebreaks. The Croat will be hoping to use her Linz campaign as a springboard after a tough few months on tour but overall she has improved considerably from her wilderness years to look well capable of breaking back inside the top 20. World number 42 Katerina Siniakova ended last season in excellent form, reaching back-to-back finals on tour and winning a fourth WTA title at the Jiangxi Open, but she has failed to win back-to-back matches since the start of 2024. The Czech leads Vekic 2-1 in their head-to-head record at tour level and her more consistent level over the season so far makes taking her to earn at least a set the cautious way to avoid a result here.

TIP: KATERINA SINIAKOVA TO WIN A SET
