Barbora Krejcikova and Carole Monnet meet in the round of 16 at Athens (Greece) on Thursday. Barbora Krejcikova is 8-2 across recent matches. Carole Monnet comes in at 4 wins from the last ten.

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

Krejcikova's 65.9% behind the first serve (against 57.4% for Monnet) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. The edge belongs to Krejcikova — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.
