Havlickova vs Radivojevic Prediction 8 September 2026
🔊 Lucie Havlíčková and Lola Radivojević meet in the first round of the Montreux tournament on clay. Both players have had an inconsistent season, and their recent results make it difficult to identify a clear favourite. The match looks likely to be a lengthy one, given the nature of both players' games.
Head-to-Head
📊 In their only previous meeting, Lucie Havlíčková won in three sets.
Lucie Havlickova Player Overview
Lucy Havlicková goes into this match with six wins from her last nine. At the US Open she beat Moyuka Uchijima and Nao Hibino, but lost to Anna Bondar in the first round of the main draw. Her average total games per match is 19, pointing to frequent long matches. She wins just over half her games (53%) and sets (62%), and takes the first set in two out of three matches. There are also issues with her serve - she holds only 49% of her service games, with a first-serve percentage of 63%. Overall, her form is inconsistent, which often leads to extended matches with no clear edge over her opponents.

Lola Radivojevic Player Overview
Lola Radivoyevic has been inconsistent of late, with 4 wins and 6 losses in her last 10 matches. Recent results include defeats to Margot Rouvroy and Kristina Lyutova, as well as a win over Kajsa Rinaldo Persson. Radivoyevic tends to be involved in longer matches, with an average total of 24 games per match, and she holds serve in 64% of service games with a first-serve percentage of 62%. Despite hitting 4 aces per match, she also produces a notable number of double faults, accounting for 6% of points played. Her overall sets-won percentage of 48% reflects a lack of dominance over opponents and a tendency for tight, competitive matches.
Match Results: Lola Radivojevic
Key factors
- Lucie Havlíčková averages 19 games per match; Lola Radivojević averages 24.
- Both players have frequently gone to three sets in their last 10 matches.
- Their head-to-head meeting went to a third set.
- Games and sets won give no clear indication of a favourite.
- Both players are in inconsistent form, which increases the likelihood of a longer match.
Expected scenario
Both players are capable of holding serve and creating pressure on return. The balance of power looks fairly even, which increases the likelihood of a three-set match or long sets even if it finishes in two. That pattern fits well with an over on the total - the required number of games is quite achievable given the nature of this match.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Both players tend to go deep into matches and rarely finish quickly, even against lower-ranked opponents. Their average game totals are high, and their head-to-head meeting also went to a third set. A tight match with no clear favourite looks the most likely scenario - the over on total games makes sense for this particular pairing on clay. The pick is Total Games - Over 21.5.
