Karolina Pliskova vs Maria Sakkari : Preview

Karolina Pliskova is back in the US Open quarterfinals for the first time in three years. On her way to the final eight, the Czech has defeated McNally, Anisimova, Tomljanovic, and Pavlyuchenkova, dropping only one set in the process. Karolina has reached the semifinals or finals of each of the four Grand Slam tournaments, although she has yet to win one. She’s been in similar circumstances before and understands how to deal with a rage.

Maria Sakkari has bounced back at US Open 2021. Sakkari survived a three-hour and 30-minute marathon Round of 16 encounter against Bianca Andreescu, the 2019 US Open winner. This was the Greek’s hardest challenge yet at the US Open 2021, as she had previously defeated Kostyuk, Siniakova, and Kvitova in straight sets. Sakkari hasn’t been at her best in recent months, but she appears to have rediscovered her form here at the US Open 2021.

Karolina Pliskova vs Maria Sakkari : Head-to-Head

This will be the duo’s third meeting at US Open 2021. In their two encounters before, both the players have won once so their current head to head stats stand at 1-1.

Karolina Pliskova vs Maria Sakkari : Prediction

This is shaping up to be a high-octane battle between two aggressive, strong, and in-form players. The pair also has a large serve in their arsenal and will try to earn a few cheap points with it. Both Karolina Pliskova and Maria Sakkari like attacking the basket and have the sheer power to do it. Sakkari must be recovering right now after playing about three hours and thirty minutes in her last 16 match against Bianca Andreescu, thus Pliskova may have a slight edge.

Our predictions: Pliskova to win in three sets.
