However, since the restart of Hardcourt season, she has had a mixed run but looked great in Ostrava in the 2nd round.

Rybakina has won just 1 quarter-final clash this season and will be looking to see an increase in the number as she looks to reach the 2nd semi-final of the season and win her first title for the season.

Iga Swiatek vs Elena Rybakina: Prediction
Iga will come into the clash with a career Hardcourt record of 46-20 and a season surface record of 15-7 having gone 32-11 for the season across all surfaces. Elena will take the court with a career Hardcourt record of 75-41 and is 15-12 on the surface for the season. Elena is currently 30-19 across all surfaces.
While both the players have had their moments this season, Iga has still managed to win 2 titles while Elena is yet to reach a final this season. However, having said that, Elena will not be a pushover for the Pole but Iga still remains the favourite for a place in the semi-finals.
Prediction: Iga Swiatek to win in 3-sets.
