Sun Apr 27 09:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Madrid Open Day Six: Top Seeds Set for Round of 16 Clash

**Madrid, Spain** – The WTA Madrid Open will see its remaining round-of-32 matches concluded on day six, featuring several top-ranked players vying for a spot in the round of 16. Key matchups include Elena Rybakina against Elina Svitolina, and several others with intriguing predictions.

Several matches present close calls. Daria Kasatkina and Ekaterina Alexandrova have a close head-to-head record, but Alexandrova’s strong clay-court season and the Madrid court’s faster surface give her a slight edge, with predictions favoring her in three sets. Similarly, Anastasia Potapova faces Sofia Kenin, with Kenin’s improved form and balanced game giving her the advantage. However, a challenging match is expected. Jessica Pegula, currently ranked world #3, is heavily favored against Moyuka Uchijima due to Pegula’s superior power and current form. The biggest upset potential lies in the match between Aryna Sabalenka and Elise Mertens, where Sabalenka holds a dominant 9-2 head-to-head record, making a Mertens victory highly unlikely.

The day promises exciting tennis, with the winners advancing to the next stage of the tournament. The complete round of 32 results will determine the matchups for the highly anticipated round of 16.
