THE PREDICTION
World number seven Maria Sakkari once again had to scrape through by the skin of her teeth with a comeback victory over Shelby Rogers on Friday. The Greek finished runner-up to Iga Swiatek here last season in one of two Masters finals lost as she also came second in Guadalajara to Jessica Pegula in October. 27-year-old Sakkari is a brilliant battler with all the ability required to succeed at this level but she still has just one WTA title from the Rabat Open in 2019, with more near misses than most since then on tour. This looks a really tough draw against in-form Anhelina Kalinina, who will set a new career-high WTA world ranking of around 28th after coming back from a set down to oust Linda Fruhvirtova. The 26-year-old upset Sakkari in three sets at the Eastbourne International on grass last summer and three sets seem likely in this second meeting between the two, particularly as Sakkari rarely wins easy these days. Take the three set option here to avoid picking a winner from this likely thriller.
