Siniakova vs Masarova Prediction 16 June 2026
🔊 Katerina Siniakova and Rebeka Masarova have both come through qualifying in Berlin and are set to face off in the opening round of the WTA 500 event. With both players looking to defend ranking points after reaching the second round here last year, the stakes are high. Who will come out on top? Our editorial team breaks down the odds and offers a well-founded prediction.
Head-to-Head
📊 In their only previous head-to-head clash, Rebeka Masarova came out on top. This result could provide the Swiss player with an extra psychological edge, especially given her underdog status in both the odds and the rankings.
Katerina Siniakova Player Overview
Katerina Siniakova heads into the main draw having won six of her last ten matches. In the qualifying rounds of the current tournament, she defeated Yue Yuan and Lin Zhu, though prior to that she fell to Victoria Mboko on the clay at Roland Garros. Siniakova relies on a dependable serve, landing 68% of her first serves. That accuracy allows her to win 62% of her service games. However, her double fault rate hovers around 5% per match, which could present opportunities for even lower-ranked opponents to break.
