She missed out on the Australian Open, Indian Wells Open, and Miami Open earlier this year due to injury. She was back to play the Stuttgart Open but was defeated by Aryna Sabalenka in the Round of 16 matches. She was then defeated by Jessica Pegula in the Round of 16 matches of the Madrid Open.

Petra Kvitová has had a tough season. She crashed out of the Australian Open and St. Petersburg Open in the first round and the second round respectively. She then participated in the Dubai Tennis Championships and made it to the quarter-final but lost to Jelena Ostapenko. She then reached the quarter-final where she was defeated by Iga Swiatek.

At Roland Garros, she failed to advance to the second round of the tournament. At Wimbledon, she lost to Paula Badosa in the third round. In the Cincinnati Open, the Czech was amazing and defeated the likes of Ons Jabeur and Madison Keys to storm into the final where she lost to Caroline Garcia. At the US Open, she was defeated by the American Jessica Pegula in the fourth round. In the Guadalajara Open, she defeated American Bernarda Pera 6-3 7-5.

Bianca Andreescu vs Petra Kvitová : Prediction

Petra Kvitová has had a host of injuries this season. This has affected her performance. Also, she could not play as well as she would have desired on the hard court as she would have liked. But it will be foolish to undermine the Czech player in any way. Bianca Andreescu is young and quick but the two-time Wimbledon champion may have some tricks of her own. Yes, the 2019 Wimbledon champion is in better shape and form than Kvitová, but still it would be a difficult test for her to beat the 2016 Rio Olympics Bronze medalist.

Prediction: Petra Kvitová will win this match in three sets.
