Head to Head: Who Takes the Win?

The previous head-to-head clash jumps off the page right away. Oksana Selekhmeteva claimed victory in their lone past meeting back in Feb 2026 with a 6 7–2 5 scoreline. The Spanish left-hander currently holds rank 93 (100 on the ladder) with 786 points and a 7-10 record this season. She is coming off a sharp win over Aoi Ito on Tue, 1 Sept, marking three victories from her past four overall outings.

On the other side of the net, Kamilla Rakhimova comes in as the 1.58 favourite on the head-to-head board. The right-hander from Uzbekistan holds current rank 92 (83 on the ladder) with 894 points and an 11-14 record in 2026. Rakhimova is coming off an impressive win against Barbora Krejcikova on Mon, 31 Aug and has won three of her last five matches overall. However, with Selekhmeteva sitting at 2.40 and owning an undefeated head-to-head record against her opponent, the Spanish lefty rates a real chance to cause another upset here.
