Aryna Sabalenka, the second seed in Berlin, will take on the unseeded Daria Kasatkina in the second round of this year’s tournament. This is the ninth time the two are squaring off and the winner here will play Marketa Vondrousova or Anna Kalinskaya next.
Daria Kasatkina has struggled against Sabalenka and has managed only two wins in this fixture. Her last win came two seasons ago in San Jose, a tournament she would end up winning. She will hope the stars align for her as they did then and as a strong grasscourt player, she will be confident of this.
Kasatkina, who has contested two tour finals on grass in her career, defeated Marta Kostyuk in the first round. It was a grueling start to the tournament with the match lasting two hours and 38 minutes. Kasatkina had to come from a set down to register her 21st win of the season. The Russian, who was a quarter-finalist on her Berlin debut in 2022, is currently ranked 14th in the WTA.
At WTA Berlin Aryna Sabalenka is making her season debut on grass
Aryna Sabalenka is making her season debut on grass. The world number three was last on the court during the clay season at the French Open.
After making the final in two successive tournaments, Sabalenka suffered a disappointing and shocking loss to teenage sensation Mirra Andreeva. She was eliminated in the quarter-finals and will hope the time away from the tour will have rejuvenated her.
Sabalenka has won six of the eight matchups with Kasatkina and is currently on a three-match winning run against the Russian. Though none of their duels has been on grass, the Belarussian will be confident of extending her dominance in this fixture.
The 26-year-old has recorded 29 wins in 37 outings this year. This has led to four finals and a second successive triumph at the Australian Open.

Our Daria Kasatkina vs Aryna Sabalenka Prediction
Our prediction for Daria Kasatkina v Aryna Sabalenka is for Sabalenka to win in three sets.
Sabalenka has dominated her matchups with Kasatkina over the years. She has won six of eight encounters though this is the first time they are battling on grass.
As both are superb grasscourt performers, this is likely to be a back-and-forth exchange. Sabalenka should therefore require a third set to advance to the next round. The world number three has also been in fine form this season and only once has she lost a second-round tie.
