Barbora Krejcikova vs Elena Rybakina Prediction & Picks - WTA Wimbledon Championships

At the end of the day, this is Elena Rybakina's match to lose. The world number four is a previous Wimbledon champion, while she's no stranger to playing in huge matches of this nature. She's also been playing well. However, the Kazakh player hasn't got this far without a few scares, dropping a set to Siegmund early on in the tournament and against Svitolina last time out. We also must not overlook just how good Krejcikova has been. She may currently be ranked at number 32, but we know she's a lot better than that. Moreover, she's a Grand Slam champion, so she won't be scared here. If we factor in how well she's played against the likes of Ostapenko and Collins in the last few rounds, it's not overly difficult to fancy her to make this a real test for Rybakina. All in all, I think, the Czech player deserves more respect. Therefore, at the early odds, she's worth betting on to, at the very least, avoid a straight-set defeat. Our Prediction: Barbora Krejcikova +1.5 Set Handicap.
