The only semi-finalist from the previous edition of Australian Open to stay alive in this year's competition, Petra Kvitova will be in action at the Rod Laver Arena when she meets Maria Sakkari from Greece in the fourth round of the new decade's first Grand Slam.
This will be the fourth meeting between the two female stars and, Sakkari has dominated Kvitova in the past. She has a head-to-head record of 2-1 against the 7th seeded Czech player. Hence, Kvitova would look to level the record in their upcoming clash.
Talking about the journey of the two players so far in Australian Open 2020, both the players are yet to drop a set in the tournament. Kvitova defeated compatriot Katerina Siniakova in the first round before eliminating Paula Badosa Gilbert and Ekateina Alexandrova in the second and third rounds, respectively.
