On Saturday, the action in Madrid starts to heat up. On the WTA side of things, we've now reached the third round of the main draw, and it is at this stage that someone like Laura Samsonova could start to really struggle. The Czech player comes into this match having fought super hard to defeat Wang Xin, who was seeded, during the last round, and that was a decent win, but she needed to expend a lot of energy there, which probably doesn't leave her best placed to defeat a hugely in-form Anna Bondar.
Clearly, Bondar is loving it in Madrid, winning each of her matches in straight sets, and the way in which she defeated a top-ten player in straight sets last time out tells us that she means business. Against a lesser opponent here, the Hungarian is worth betting on to once agan win by a fairly comfortable margin.

Our Laura Samson vs Anna Bondar Prediction
Right now, Anna Bondar is thriving, and it's been clear for all to see that her game is suited to the conditions in the Spanish capital. Not only did the Hungarian make light work of beating Golubic, but the way in which she saw off Svitolina last time out really was impressive. This is a less demanding task, so much so that she's well worth betting on to win by at least a four-game margin.
Bondar's opponent was involved in a tough three-set match last time out, and she likely lacks the freshness to seriously push a player in hot form.
