Elena Rybakina vs Karolina Pliskova Prediction: Elena is having her best year

The WTA Tour is full of amazing tournaments. Of course, the Grand Slams are rated high but then there are tournaments such as Ostrava Open and Guadalajara Open that have almost similar firepower to the Grand Slam, so the tennis world in these cases does get a lot of fanfare. In this game of the Guadalajara Open, Elena Rybakina is going to take on Karolina Pliskova. 

Elena Rybakina

Rybakina who is having a fantastic year last plated in Ostrava Open where she reached the Semi-Final, losing to Babora Krejickova. She had reached the Slovenia Open Final too and this is among the runs during a string of tournaments where she has gone deep. Elena was the Wimbledon champion and that is when she rose to fame, defeating Ons Jabeur in the Final. The amazing tennis player can be argued as one of the best power-hitters on the WTA tour. Can she end the year on a high?

Karolina Pliskova

Karolina Pliskova last played during San Diego Open where she lost to Donna Vekic in the Round of 16. During Ostrava Open, she lost in the First Round to Alyscia Parks in an unprecedented result, which followed the second round run during the Japan Open. During her last Grand Slam participation in US Open, she made it to the Quarter-Final but lost to Aryna Sabalenka there. Pliskova is someone who has been ranked at number before and remained there for eight weeks. How will this upcoming window be?

Expert Betting Tips

Elena has been one of the toughest players to match-up against lately. Karolina remains a firm competitor as she has a lot of experience and a taste of being at the top on the WTA tour before. Elena is reaching there consistently and I’d back her to win against Pliskova here.
