Karolina played 6 grass-court matches last season. Furst three sets in three of them finished as tie-breaks, two finished in 10 games and the only one that stayed at 9 games was the opening set against Lisicki (the second one finished in a tie-break). This is the second match on grass court of this season for Karolina and her focus here will be winning her service games. She has one of the most powerful serves in the world and is prone to playing matches with a lot of games. She is good in her service games and will not have give the opponent much chance there. On return, however, she is struggling. Konta did well against Gajdosova both in return and other segments. Everything worked properly and she can be a very tricky opponent here. That goes for the first set especially where Karolina will be looking to adjust to the surface. That is Konte's upper hand as she already played a few matches on it. But playing against Karolina's serves is not easy. Konte likes to get in the court when returning service and that causes her trouble. Both can win their service games easily early in the set, which could be settled in the very end.
