Aryna Sabalenka will swing for another deep run at the Stuttgart Open, as she takes on Elise Mertens of Belgium in Saturday’s quarterfinal round.
Sabalenka extended her win streak to seven games after getting a walk-over win over Anastasia Potapova. Without breaking a sweat, Sabalenka secured another quarterfinal appearance in Stuttgart and a chance to get into the championship rounds with a win over Mertens on Saturday.
Mertens moved on to the quarterfinals by beating an out of form Diana Shnaider 6-2 7-6(5). The Belgian won 76 percent of her first serves and converted on four breakpoint chances against Shnaider, who is now 9-10 in the WTA season. Ranked No.29 in the world, Mertens has played the world’s No.1 Sabalenka 10 times, winning only twice.

Our Aryna Sabalenka vs Elise Mertens Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Aryna Sabalenka will demolish Elise Mertens, covering a -6.5 game spread.
Sabalenka is coming into her 11th career match with Elise Mertens with plenty of time to prepare after that walkover win against Potapova. Moreover, Sabalenka decimated Mertens in their last faceoff on clay 6-1 4-0 ret, further boosting my confidence that the world’s No.1 will cover a wide game spread in this match. Mertens deserves a tap on her back for getting this far, but her victory against Diana Shnaider should have an asterisk next to it because Shnaider is struggling this year with her form (9-10 in the season). Our betting prediction for Aryna Sabalenka vs. Elise Mertens: Aryna Sabalenka +6.5 Games.
