Prediction: Katerina Siniakova VS Daria Kasatkina 2025-05-26
The 2025 French Open is heating up, and we've got a thrilling matchup between Katerina Siniakova and Daria Kasatkina. Kasatkina, now an Australian citizen, is looking to make a statement in her first Grand Slam match under her new nationality. With a dominant 5-1 head-to-head record against Siniakova, Kasatkina is the clear favorite to win this one.
But don't count out Siniakova just yet. Despite her lackluster 3-5 record on clay this season, she's still a force to be reckoned with on the court. Kasatkina, on the other hand, has been struggling with a 2-4 record on clay, which might give Siniakova a glimmer of hope.
The odds are firmly in Kasatkina's favor, with DraftKings offering 1.42 for a Kasatkina win and 2.75 for a Siniakova upset. The spread is set at -3.5 for Kasatkina, with BetMGM offering 1.77 for a Kasatkina win and 1.98 for a Siniakova cover.
My best bet for this matchup? Kasatkina to win, but I'm not convinced it'll be a straight-set victory. Siniakova might push Kasatkina to her limits, making the over 21.5 total games a tempting bet. With Kasatkina's dominant head-to-head record and Siniakova's determination to cause an upset, this match has all the ingredients for a thrilling encounter.
Best bet: Daria Kasatkina to win (-3.5) at 1.77 (BetMGM) or Over 21.5 total games at 1.95 (BetOnline.ag).
