Top seed Aryna Sabalenka starts her chase for a first Rome Open title when she faces Barbora Krejcikova. History favors a Sabalenka win as the two go into their eighth career meeting. This, though, is their first encounter in two years, and we have a prediction for the match below.
These players are only meeting on clay for the second time. Sabalenka won the first in Stuttgart and looks likely to claim a second win as she looks to recover from a shock loss in Madrid.
Billed the favorite in the Spanish capital, Sabalenka was beaten in straights by world number 25 Hailey Baptiste. That was only her second loss this season. The 2024 Rome Open finalist comes here having compiled a 26-2 record.
Krejcikova, 49th in the live rank, knows she has a tough task here as she looks to improve her 6-1 record in this matchup. While she is facing a former finalist here, the Czech athlete, on her third Rome appearance, has never gone past the third round.
Krejcikova’s highlight this season was reaching the United Cup quarterfinals. She is coming off a straight-set win over Elsa Jacquemot, her fourth win of a season slowed down by injuries.
At her best, Krejcikova is unplayable; she won her last two meetings with reigning world No.1 players – Iga Swiatek in Dubai 2023 and Ostrava 2022.

Barbora Krejcikova is not a stranger to big wins against established players. Her last two matches against a World No. 1 ended in the Czech’s wins. She has also tasted victory once against Sabalenka, though coming here, her season has been hampered by injuries.
The Czech isn’t in her best form but looks good enough to win a set off Sabalenka. The world number one has had a tremendous season, but lately she’s been dropping sets, which we feel could happen here. Our prediction for Aryna Sabalenka v Barbora Krejcikova is for the exact score: 2-1.
