The WTA and ATP scene will soon turn into the French Open in around a month away so we are going to see a lot of clay action. Since the Grand Slam is near, these tournaments act not only as a great preparation but also has rankings and seedings at stake. In this Madrid Open match, Sorana Cirstea is going to take on Aryna Sabalenka.

Cirstea comes into the game after defeating Lauren Davis 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 in the Round of 128. Cirstea had seven Aces and scooped up a 50-42 service points advantage and a 44-31 receiving points edge. She last played in Miami Open before Madrid games and reached the fourth round, losing to Petra Kvitova, but defeated Aryna Sabalenka on the way. She also made it to the Quarter-Finals of Indian Wells Masters and defeated Caroline Garcia on the way. This has been a rather exceptional window compared to earlier tournaments when Sorana was getting ousted in initial rounds.
Aryna Sabalenka
Saba comes into the tournament after losing to Iga Swiatek during the Stuttgart Open. Aryna lost to Sorana in Miami Open. Before that she featured in Indian Wells Masters where she lost to Elena Rybakina in the Final in a thrilling two-set match. Saba had reached new heights when she won the Australian Open after she defeated Elena in the Final. So Aryna has reached three finals already this season and this is the best form she has ever been. She has limited her errors and has been in terrific touch for most parts.

Sorana and Aryna have met only once and that was during the Miami Open where Sorana won in three sets.
Expert Betting Tips
As has been stated numerous times above, Sorana defeated Aryna recently and that means she will enter with a lot of confidence. However, Aryna knows how to adjust to her opponents well at this point of her career and it is unlikely that she will say goodbye this early in the tournament. I expect a win for Saba but this game can stretch long.Madrid Open
