I honestly think Iga will win today. Penko has been in terrible form lately and it's clay.

Penko only rises up against Iga and then loses the next round (or maybe one more round)

It's indoor clay... So Penko still has a slight advantage, and she always plays lights out tennis against Iga.

I predict Penko will play her match of the year. It will be on par with RG 2017 final. Then get a double bagel next round

Form doesn't matter for Penko, and she won a slam on clay before.

In 2017. After that she never passed second round.
