Anett Kontaveit vs Katerina Siniakova: Preview

Anett Kontaveit is enjoying a big purple patch in her career as she continues to make good runs at various tournaments. Apart from her two titles in the past 1 month, the Estonian also made it to the quarter-finals of the 2021 Indian Wells where she lost to Ons Jabeur. This will be Anett’s third trip to Moscow and she will play in the main-draw just for the second time having reached the quarter-finals in 2018.

Katerina Siniakova has been having a mixed run since the hardcourt season resumed again. She has reached the quarter-finals of two competitions but has been knocked out in the early rounds mostly. She comes from a 2nd round defeat at the Indian Wells. Katerina had made it to the semi-finals of the 2014 Kremlin Cup, her debut at the tournament, but since then has won only 1 first-round match in her next 4 visits to Moscow.

Anett Kontaveit vs Katerina Siniakova: Head to Head

Kontaveit will come into the clash with a career Hardcourt record of 145-87 and is 21-10 on the surface for the season while having a season record of 35-15 across all surfaces,

Looking at these numbers, their past performances and recent results, Anett Kontaveit seems to be the one heading into the next round given her great form lately that has boosted her morale and confidence immensely.
