Dominika Salkova vs Katerina Siniakova Tips

Salkova will face veteran Katerina Siniakova in the round of 16 in Prague. The young Czech advanced with a convincing 2-0 win over Samson in the opening round and has now won 8 of her last 10 matches. Interestingly, Siniakova lost 2-1 to Samson in the same stage of this tournament last year. She has dropped two of her last four matches, including a straight-sets defeat to Naomi Osaka most recently.

This promises to be an intriguing all-Czech duel. Salkova, a young and talented rising star, faces the experienced Katerina Siniakova. Both players opened the tournament with comfortable straight-set wins. Salkova has been in strong form, winning 8 of her last 10 matches, while Siniakova has lost two of her last four. Given their current form, a tight match is expected. I’m backing Salkova to edge it 2-1.
