THE PREDICTION
World number 11 Caroline Garcia came back from a set down to beat Aliaksandra Sasnovich on Tuesday in an encouraging start to her Guadalajara campaign. The 29-year-old was in the form of her life this time last season but she has failed to win back-to-back matches in five of her last six tournaments as she continues to stutter through 2023. World number 174 Hailey Baptiste stands an excellent chance at causing another upset this week after she overcame former number one Karolina Pliskova in three tight sets on Wednesday – stunning the out of sorts Czech for a second time in as many months. The 21-year-old beat Garcia in their only previous encounter early last season but Garcia, despite recently falling far from her best, should be in better shape than she was back then. Realistically, predicting which version of the Frenchwoman will take to court on Thursday is near impossible right now. Baptiste has played well enough to consider taking to earn at least a set here but leave this match well away from an accumulator.
