LAURA SIEGEMUND VS SOFIA KENIN PREDICTION
Former world number four Sofia Kenin finished runner-up to relative unknown Iga Swiatek here back in 2020 and the American’s career has been listless ever since.
The 25-year-old won her maiden Grand Slam title at the Australian Open earlier that season but the covid-19 pandemic came at exactly the wrong time for her progression, although she has endured a series of problems on and off the court. Kenin upset Ons Jabeur en-route to the third round of the Italian Open earlier this month but a defeat to qualifier Rebecca Sramkova is symptomatic of her erratic form.
World number 78 Laura Siegemund is at her best on clay and she brings some decent form into Paris after a run to the quarter-finals of the Rabat Open this week. The 36-year-old lost both of her previous meetings with Kenin in straight sets back in 2019 but back her to earn at least one to leave the victor up to chance.
