Varvara Gracheva vs Rebecca Sramkova prediction
Varvara Gracheva meets Rebecca Sramkova in a battle of the qualifiers in Dubai.
The French world number 73 is in buoyant mood after winning seven of her last eight matches (including qualifiers) and reaching the round of 16 in Doha.
Sramkova has struggled for main draw wins in 2026 but one of those did come against Gracheva courtesy of a 6-4 4-6 6-2 success
Their head-to-head is tied at 1-1 with the French woman triumphing in straight sets on the grass of Eastbourne last year.
Going by form, Gracheva is clearly in more of a groove right now, but Sramkova has been inside the top 35 and is a danger on her day.
There’s little between them in the rankings and it could well go to the wire with Varvara having the edge.
Varvara Gracheva vs Rebecca Sramkova tip: Over 2.5 sets
