In the 1/4 finals of the hard court US Open, Sorana Cirstea from Romania will face Karolina Muchova from Czech Republic. The betting is leaning towards a victory for Muchova.
33-year-old Sorana Cirstea, holding the 30th place in the global tennis ranking, has claimed four victories at the US Open. In this tournament, she confidently defeated Day with a score of 6:2, 6:3, Kalinskaya 6:3, 6:4, Rybakina 6:3, 6:7 (6:8), 6:4 and Bencic with a score of 6:3, 6:3. Earlier in Cincinnati, Montreal and Washington the tennis player won over Alexandrova, Gracheva and Martic, but lost to Sakkari, Muchova and Samsonova.
At Wimbledon, Sorana triumphed over Maria with a score of 6:1, 2:6, 6:3 and Ostapenko 4:6, 7:6 (8:6), 6:4, but later lost to Haddad Maia with a score of 2:6, 2:6. Her previous tournaments performances were unstable, in Eastbourne Cirstea lost to Bogdan with a score of 3:6, 6:2, 3:6, while in Birmingham she won Bogdan with a score of 6:4, 2:6, 6:3, but afterwards lost to Fresh with a score of 3:6, 7:6 (7:1), 4:6. At the French Open, Cirstea lost to Paolini with a score of 5:7, 6:2, 2:6, lost to Burel in Strasbourg with a score of 6:7 (5:7), 5:7, and in Rome she managed to win the first tour, defeating Volynets with a score of 2:6, 6:3, 6:4, but afterwards lost to Ostapenko with a score of 3:6, 6:3, 2:6.
In early May, Sorana Cirstea showcased excellent form at the Challenger tournament in Reus, where she won the title. She managed to overcome Bolsova, Schmidlova, McNally, Davis and Mandlik. It's also worth noting her successful performances at tournaments in Miami, where she reached the semifinals, and Indian Wells, where Cirstea reached the quarterfinals on a hard court.
27-year-old Karolina, occupying the 10th place in the global tennis ranking, has won four matches at the US Open. As part of this tournament, she defeated Sanders with a score of 6:4, 6:0, Fresh 6:3, 6:3, Townsend 7:6 (7:0), 6:3 and Van with a score of 6:3, 5:7, 6:1. Her performances on other tournaments were also impressive; in Cincinnati, she made it to the finals, defeating Haddad Maia with a score of 6:7 (3:7), 6:1, 6:4, Martic 6:3, 3:6, 6:3, Sakkari 6:3, 2:6, 6:3, Bouzkova and Sabalenka with a score of 6:7 (4:7), 6:3, 6:2, but lost to Gauff with a score of 3:6, 4:6.
In Montreal, Karolina defeated Potapova with a score of 7:6 (7:4), 6:2 and Cirstea 7:5, 6:4, but later lost to Swiatek with a score of 1:6, 6:4, 4:6. At the Warsaw tournament, she dealt with Sasnovich with a score of 4:6, 7:6 (7:0), 6:3, but she then yielded to Shramkova 5:7, 6:3, 5:7, and at Wimbledon began with a defeat by Nimeier with a score of 4:6, 7:5, 1:6.
However, in June, at the French Open, Karolina showcased an impressive game, reaching the final. On her journey she defeated Sakkari with a score of 7:6 (7:5), 7:5, Podoroska 6:3, 0:6, 6:3, Irina-Camelia Begu 6:3, 6:2, Avanesyan 6:4, 6:3, Pavlyuchenkova with a score of 7:5, 6:2 and Sabalenka 7:6 (7:5), 6:7 (5:7), 7:5, but lost to Swiatek in the final with a score of 2:6, 7:5, 4:6.
In addition, at the Rome tournament, Karolina showed a good level of play, scoring victories over Rahimova, Trevisan and Giorgi, but lost in the final match to Badosa. The start of the season was also successful for Muchova, where she reached the quarterfinals at tournaments in Indian Wells and Dubai on hard courts.
The athletes have previously faced each other 4 times, with a meet score at 3:1 in Muchova's favour.
For me, the favourite in this upcoming match is Muchova, as she surpasses Cirstea in class and has already defeated the opponent three times. Muchova is renowned for her stability and fighting spirit, and that's why I'm betting on her victory.
