Iga Świątek has been on an amazing road, reaching world no. 4 at the end of last year, winning the Qatar Open title, and making it to two semifinals. In comparison, the Ukrainian has had an unfruitful year, displaying no stability. The odds for this match are quite one-sided, but anything could happen on the court.

Prediction: Iga Świątek is expected to win in two sets.
