Rybakina has beaten Siniakova in four of their six head-to-head encounters. In their last three matches, Rybakina won without giving up a single set. Today, we also expect a victory for Elena. Apparently, she became more confident in the course of the tournament and didn’t use much energy, unlike her opponent who played two matches on Saturday.
In the last two matches at the tournament, Rybakina did not allow her opponents to score more than five games. At the same time, in the three previous victorious head-to-head matches, Elena did not give up any sets to Katerina.
Siniakova made her way confidently through to the final, losing only one set so far.
