Karolina Muchova v Katerina Siniakova Head to Head
Their only previous meeting came way back in 2020 in Dubai and Siniakova had won that one. Surprisingly, these two Czech players have never faced off after that.
Muchova Eases Past Cocciaretto
Karolina Muchova did not have a lot of worries when she took on Elisabetta Cocciaretto for their second round encounter.
Muchova, who had a first round bye after having made the semifinal in the WTA 1000 tournament in Dubai, claimed her third round spot with a straight set win over Cocciaretto.
In a match that lasted an hour and 26 minutes, Muchova defeated Cocciaretto 6-4, 6-3 to reach the third round of a tournament she has played just once before this. That had come in 2023 and Muchova had made the quarterfinals.
The Czech was broken twice in the first set but that was after she had taken a 4-0 lead and then dropped her serve again in the second set at 2-2. She retaliated with two breaks of serve to win the next four games, and in turn the match.
With this win, Muchova improved to 10-5 for the season and will now start a favourite against fellow Czech player Katerina Siniakova.

Siniakova Sends Putintseva Packing
Despite starting out an 11/10 underdog in her second round encounter against Yulia Putintseva, Katerina Siniakova found a way to make it past her opponent in a match that lasted a mere two sets.
Siniakova won 6-2, 6-2 to enter the third round of this competition for just the second time in her career – a career that has seen her feature in this tournament on nine previous occasions.
This follows another straight-set win in the first round for Siniakova, having beaten Maria Carle Lourdes.
Earlier in this season, Siniakova had made the semifinal of the Cluj-Napoca Open, the only previous time when she had won a main draw match this season from five attempts.
Can she now continue in the same vein against her fellow countrywoman?
Muchova v Siniakova Predictions
A fully fit Muchova should not have too many worries here and a straight-set win looks like the most likely result.
Muchova v Siniakova Tips
- Muchova to win: 7/20
- Muchova to win in straight sets: 1/1
