Aryna Sabalenka vs Leylah Annie Fernandez: Preview

Aryna Sabalenka has displayed incredible grit and determination on the court. She came into the US Open after a forgettable outing at the Cincinnati Open where she was knocked out in her first match by unseeded Paula Badosa. However, the way Sabalenka has played in the US Open thus far, proves that she is well and truly back in form.

The World No. 2 has won matches after matches without much trouble in the final Grand Slam of the season. Such has been her domination on the court that she has dropped just a solitary set in the entire tournament. Moreover, in her match-up, she defeated eighth-seeded Barbora Krejčíková with relative ease.

On the other hand, Leylah Annie Fernandez has scripted history at the US Open. The young Canadian raised a few eyebrows after defeating third-seeded Naomi Osaka in her third-round clash. Post that, she thrashed Angelique Kerber, and fifth-seeded Elina Svitolina and cruised into the semis.

Aryna Sabalenka vs Leylah Annie Fernandez: Prediction

Leylah Annie Fernandez has been in sensational form at the US Open. She has thrashed several highly-rated players without much trouble and she will be riding high on confidence. However, her dream run might come to an end in the semis against Sabalenka who has been in scintillating touch. Needless to say, Leylah will not go down without a fight. This promises to be a nail-biter.

Prediction: Aryna Sabalenka to win in 5 sets
