Katerina Siniakova vs Caroline Garcia : Prediction

Caroline Garcia will be the favourite in the upcoming Katerina Siniakova vs Caroline Garcia  clash at the Parma Open 2021.
Caroline Garcia

Katerina has not played much on Clay but has won more than 50% of her matches across her career. She is 4-2 on Clay this season but her overall record has been poor this year. Caroline has similar record on Clay and is 3-1 on Clay for the season. She however has a slight better record this year, being 10-8 as compared to Katerina’s 6-8.

The match can swing either ways with both fighting for their first semi-finals. Garcia looks favourite to win this owing to her better form across the season, and also has the extra motivation to level their head-to-head tie which she trails 2-3.

Prediction: Caroline Garcia to win in 3-sets.
