Top seed Katerina Siniakova will play lucky loser Alycia Parks in the second round of the 2024 Guangzhou Open. A win for Siniakova will set up a quarter-final showdown with either Bernarda Pera or Zhang Shuai. Here’s a look at some stats and a prediction for the match.

Siniakova defeated qualifier Petra Martic by the loss of three games in the first round. Another win will see her qualify for the quarter-finals for the first time. Facing a player she has dominated, she will be confident of prolonging her stay here.

Siniakova, who is currently 47th in the live ranking, has won both her matchups with Parks. She won most recently in April on a clay surface in Lleida. The 28-year-old posted three wins in her last five outings.

With both hands, Alycia Parks has grabbed the lifeline handed to her after losing in the qualifying rounds. Taking on Anna Bondar, ranked more than 50 places above her in the WTA, Parks won her first-round tie in straight sets.

That was the second win in her last seven matches.

Parks, who is debuting in Guangzhou, arrived for the tournament having lost four straight matches. She has improved her shaky record to 24-26 and moved to 104th in the live ranking.
