LiontipsIga Swiatek vs Elina Svitolina. Predictions and Betting Tips for WTA Rome
Command Analysis
Ranked 15th in the world Iga Swiatek has a difficult objective - to defend a title at Roland-Garros. Polish player is trying to gain a perfect form before the start of Paris tournament. So far she's doing great, but we can't confirm that Iga is at her peak now.
At Rome Polish player advanced through the first round because of Riske's withdrawal. Then she defeated Keys in straight sets (7:5, 6:1). But in the round of 16 Swiatek experienced some serious problems in the match against Barbora Krejcikova. This clash was going on for almost three hours, so Iga left a lot of energy in this match and there are some doubts whether Iga will recover before the quarter-final match.
Elina Svitolina had an unsuccessful clay tournament at Madrid, where she took a disappointing defeat from Teichmann (6:2, 4:6, 6:7) in the first match. But Ukrainian player performs better at Rome tournament. It is not much of a surprise, because Elina claimed two titles at the Italian capital.
In the first match against Amanda Anisimova Svitolina needed three sets to secure a victory (2:6, 6:3, 6:4). Her next match, against Garbine Muguruza, ended more quickly (6:4, 6:2).
