Aryna Sabalenka and Katerina Siniakova meet in the second round of the 2024 Wuhan Open. The match is scheduled for Wednesday, October 9, 2024. Here's our Aryna Sabalenka vs Katerina Siniakova prediction. This article will also contain a Aryna Sabalenka vs Katerina Siniakova pick.

 

Aryna Sabalenka vs Katerina Siniakova Preview

 

Aryna Sabalenka is a two-time defending champion of the Wuhan Open, winning the last staging of this tournament in 2019. So, returning to the city must evoke some happy memories. 

Sabalenka's 15-match winning streak came to a juddering halt during her first tournament of the 2024 Asian swing in Beijing when she lost to an inspired Karolina Muchova. It is starting to look like a very tricky matchup for Sabalenka, who lost to the Czech for the third match in a row in their head-to-head.

But attention will quickly turn to Wuhan, which forms part of the WTA 1000 double header in China. If Sabalenka wins the title, she will have a clear shot at taking over the World No. 1 ranking.

But Katerina Siniakova will stand in her way in the second round. Another wily and crafty Czech will pose the greatest danger. Siniakova won her opening match at the 2024 Wuhan Open against the young Filipina Alexandra Eala in convincing fashion.

She only dropped four games, but the worrying statistic is that her serve was broken three times. This was only Siniakova's second win in her last six matches on hard courts.

 

Aryna Sabalenka vs Katerina Siniakova Head-To-Head

 

• Sabalenka leads the series 1-0. She defeated Siniakova in their only WTA meeting at the 2020 Strasbourg quarterfinals.

• This will be their first meeting on a hard court.

 

Aryna Sabalenka vs Katerina Siniakova Prediction

 

Sabalenka may have lost her 15-match undefeated streak in Beijing, but she's perfect 12/12 in Wuhan where she is a two-time defending champion. And with Iga Swiatek taking a leave of absence from the sport, the Belarusian has a massive opportunity to finish the season as World No. 1. I highly doubt she'll make a mess of things and lose her opening match this week.
