Command Analysis
Aryna Sabalenka
BelarusCurrent form
Sobolenko is coming to the start in Madrid after another defeat in the Stuttgart final. For the third time in her career, Arina failed to win a decisive match at these competitions, losing this time to Ostapenko (4-6, 1-6). In the capital of Spain, the first racket of the world has the title of 2023 and last year's final.
Professional qualities
Arina plays attacking power tennis, fortunately, excellent physical characteristics allow her to do it. The Belarusian tennis player has a powerful forehand that many men can envy, and she also has a strong first serve. Recently, Sobolenko has noticeably increased the variability of the game, and does not seek to end each draw with a straight punch at any cost.
Current indicators in the tour
Sobolenko entered the season in the status of the first racket of the world and confidently holds the mark, increasing the gap in points from Schwentek. Since the beginning of the year, Arina has played 31 matches in the tour and won 26 victories.

Anna Blinkova
Russian FederationCurrent form
For two years in a row, Blinkova could not overcome the barrier of the first round in Madrid. This year, Anna broke a series of setbacks, and first overcame two rounds of qualifying, after which she dealt with Udardi in the first round of the main draw (6-4, 6-2). She scored all her victories with an accurate score of 2-0 in sets, but she had no more or less serious rivals.
Professional qualities
Anna plays quite straightforwardly and predictably, relying on strong flat punches with both hands and a powerful first serve. She doesn't play well at the reception, and it's obviously not going to be easy for her to handle Arina's serve.
Current indicators in the tour
Blinkova has not been particularly stable throughout the season, winning 13 matches and suffering 10 defeats. She is currently ranked 76th in the ranking.
Interesting facts for betting
