WTA Madrid Day 5 Predictions

Victoria Azarenka vs Sara Sorribes Tormo

Head-to-head: first meeting

Azarenka is a former two time finalist at this tournament, but that was all the way back in 2011 and 2012. 12 years later she is still playing at a very high level, but Sorribes Tormo playing at home and on clay is sure to be a tough nut to crack. Still, Azarenka clearly remains the better player of the two and should be able to pull through here.
Prediction: Azarenka in 3
