They have met once before, with Raducanu winning at Wimbledon in July 2021 in straight sets. That match also hinted at why: Raducanu's first-serve points won rate was 83% and she held 80% of service games, keeping Cirstea under constant scoreboard pressure.

On hard courts this season, Cirstea is 9-2, while Raducanu is 6-3. The clearest split is on serve: Cirstea has held 77% of service games to Raducanu's 65%, which can matter most in a final where a slow start is costly.

Bookmakers price Raducanu at 1.92 against Cirstea at 1.75; first-set prices are 1.9 versus 1.76. It's a narrow gap, but it signals a small lean towards Cirstea over the full match and the opening set.
Raducanu's better recent return rate on hard courts, at 46% of return games won this season, suggests she can create pressure even when rallies are tight. Yet Cirstea's stronger holding numbers and cleaner recent serving give her a steadier base if games stay close, and Raducanu also comes in with a heavier recent workload at 5 hours 39 minutes across her last three matches. Both have played back-to-back matches, so energy management may quietly influence the big points.
Prediction
Sorana Cirstea
Emma Raducanu
Overall indicators tilt slightly towards Sorana Cirstea: the market makes her a narrow favourite and her hard-court season has been built on a stronger hold rate. Emma Raducanu's head-to-head win and higher recent return pressure keep it competitive, but the combination of serve stability and a lighter recent workload gives Cirstea a small edge.
