    • Paula Badosa is ranked higher but has produced inconsistent results recently.

    Elena Pridankina has consistently won games, often taking more than 9.5 even against strong opponents. Her ability to win opening sets and convert break points could be crucial against Paula Badosa, whose form has been inconsistent. The pick is Elena Pridankina over 9.5 total games won.
