Maria Sakkari v Karolina Pliskova Head to Head
There have been three previous meetings between these two players and Sakkari leads 2-1 on head to head.
It’s one win apiece on clay but in their only match in a hard court competition at the 2021 US Open, Sakkari was a 6-4, 6-4 winner.

Sakkari Scrapes Past Stephens
It needed Sakkari two hours and 10 minutes alright but in the end, she managed to make it past Sloane Stephens to enter the third round.
Sakkari, who has never gone past the third round in this tournament, won 6-2, 4-6, 6-2 in the second round, following an opening bye.
She slammed nine aces and while she was broken twice in the encounter, Sakkari retaliated with five breaks of her own to complete the fighting victory.
The Greek number one had come into the tournament on the back of an opening loss at the San Jose Open to Shelby Rogers and there was always that fear she was rusty coming into the hard court season in the USA.

Pliskova Makes it Successive Straight-Set Wins
While Pliskova wasn’t quite the underdog going up against Barbora Krejcikova in the first round of the competition she was 6/4 against Amanda Anisimova in the second round.
Anisimova has had a solid recent record and with the kind of form she’s been it was no surprise she was a heavy favourite coming into the tournament. Especially against Pliskova whose struggles on the tour recently have been well-chronicled.
As it turned out Pliskova was in rampaging mood. She was on court for 54 minutes, dropped just two games and broke her opponent five times in the encounter. Anisimova had two break-points of her own but failed to convert either.
By winning back to back matches here, Pliskova has achieved this for the first time in 2022. Can she make it three wins in a row now?
Sakkari v Pliskova Prediction and Tip
Sakkari is a 3/4 favourite to win and despite Pliskova’s recent showings, we back the Greek player to come away a winner here.
Tip: Sakkari to win: 3/4 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
