Ristic enters the final as the higher-ranked player at 267 and has shown mixed form with three wins in her last five matches on clay. She secured victories against Mintegi Del Olmo and Boskovic but suffered losses to Havlickova and Lee in recent qualifying rounds.

Cortez Llorca ranks 486 and comes off a straight-sets victory over Ulueren in her most recent outing. The Spanish player will face a seeded opponent in this qualification final with no prior head-to-head history between the two players.
