Siniakova is far higher ranked and the clearly superior player; she also won with relative ease when the pair faced, even if that was all the way back in 2015. Siniakova isn&#8217;t exactly known for her grasscort game but she should still be able to pull through here.<br \/>\n<strong>Prediction:<\/strong> Siniakova in 2<\/p>\n<h4>Mayar Sherif vs Lucia Bronzetti<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Head-to-head:<\/strong> first meeting<\/p>\n<p>Although Sherif is far higher ranked, this should be a very close match. Neither player is particularly fond of playing on grass, but both showed a very good level in their opening round match here.
