Aryna Sabalenka Player Overview
Sabalenka, who has yet to claim a title on grass, has made significant strides over the past year and is now considered a top contender for the Wimbledon crown. But what about Berlin? The competition here is fierce, with many strong opponents, including Rybakina. Elena has already won Wimbledon and poses a serious threat on grass. However, Sabalenka prepared for Berlin by training with Kasatkina, who is also a formidable adversary on this surface. In the previous round, Sabalenka defeated Masarova in a two-hour battle. There wasn't anything extraordinary in that match; it was only in the second set that the Swiss player shifted into high gear and pushed it to a tiebreak, yet Sabalenka ultimately prevailed.
Match Results: Aryna Sabalenka
Elena Rybakina Player Overview
Rybakina is currently excelling against her opponents in Berlin. After Zheng withdrew from the tournament and lucky loser Krueger was drawn against Elena in the first round, Rybakina's chances of advancing significantly increased. She didn't disappoint, defeating the American 2-0. Up next was Siniakova. Both players are strong performers on grass, and their head-to-head clash was a highlight of the tournament's second round. However, Rybakina proved superior, winning in straight sets despite committing eight double faults.

Editor's Prediction
Sabalenka is considered the favorite against Rybakina, despite Elena's superior play on grass courts. However, Sabalenka's form over the past year cannot be overlooked; she has significantly improved in handling psychological pressure and channeling her frustration into performance results. Clearly, the Belarusian has made noticeable progress on grass as well. Our bet is on Arina Sabalenka to win the match.
