Elise Mertens vs Katerina Siniakova Prediction & Picks - WTA Rome

 by Bradley Gibbs | in Tennis Picks

Two players closely matched according to the WTA rankings will clash in the Italian capital on Friday. Elise Mertens, who is currently ranked 30th in the world, goes up against Katerina Siniakova, who holds a ranking of 36th. The Russian comes here off the back of winning a minor tournament in Spain last week, while she got the job done in straight sets yesterday in Rome. However, she's up against a player whom she struggled against, so can she maintain that promising form? We'll soon find out.

Our Elise Mertens vs Katerina Siniakova Prediction

I'll get straight to it here and say that the early odds on offer look a little wrong. Siniakova is being priced as a player in form, which she is, but we shouldn't neglect the fact that the event she won last week was a Challenger event, not a WTA event, while her first-round win in Rome shouldn't be overreacted to either, as she beat a player ranked 292nd in the world. Such a win does not necessarily point to success against a top 30 player. Mertens lost her last clay match, but she battled well against a strong Sloane Stephens, while we've recently seen her beat very good players such as Svitolina. Factor in her perfect record against Siniakova and it's not all that difficult to conclude that the Belgian should be shorter in the betting. While she's not, she looks like an excellent bet to get the job done. Our Prediction: Elise Mertens to Win.
