Badosa lost to Gauff in China in October the last time they faced each other and the duo are tied at 3-3 in career head-to-head meetings.
“I respect her a lot. She’s a great competitor,” Badosa said of the 2023 U.S. Open champion.
“We always have tough matches. The last one was really tough for me, because I was winning in that moment, then the momentum changed in the Beijing semi-finals.
“I hope I can have my revenge here. It’s a special match, quarter-finals, centre court, against her.
“I will get ready for that battle again.”
