Our Barbora Krejcikova vs Emma Raducanu Prediction
This won’t be an easy match for both competitors, who gutted out straight-set victories in their first matches. However, Krejcikova seems like a tempting underdog pick at +105 because of her strong form recently. Krejcikova has won five of her last six matches, made it to the quarterfinals of the 2025 US Open, and compiled an impressive 8-3 record on the surface this year. The Czech, when healthy, is among the elites on the tour. She is a two-time Grand Slam winner with a 59 percent win rate on the hard court.
Raducanu has played much better tennis this year compared to her previous campaigns. Raducanu boasts a 16-10 record on the hard court this year, but she’s only 3-10 against WTA top-20 players. Krejcikova currently ranks outside the top 30 in the world rankings, though she finished her WTA campaign last season in the top 8. A back injury delayed her debut this year and caused her to miss tournaments that offer high world ranking points. Now that she’s healthy again, Krejcikova is back at playing like a top-20, top-10 player. This could spell trouble for Raducanu, who was outclassed by most top-20 players this year.
Our betting prediction for Emma Raducanu vs. Barbora Krejcikova: Barbora Krejcikova will win.
