Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova and Sara Sorribes Tormo will meet for the sixth time, with the Russian leading 3-2. Pavlyuchenkova has been consistent this season, not losing often, especially on hard courts. Sorribes Tormo, although she had a slow start to the year, showed a more confident game in Madrid. The Spaniard has victories over strong opponents. Both players are not in their best form, but Sorribes Tormo seems more stable and adapted to clay, which could help her overcome Pavlyuchenkova's attacking style of play. Therefore, the editorial choice is for Sorribes Tormo to win.
