Alexandra Eala vs Iga Swiatek prediction
Iga Swiatek hit new heights in her title defence as she swept past Karolina Pliskova.
The Pole wobbled in her opener against Taylor Townsend but was much more assured as she notched up a 6-1 6-3 victory over the former finalist.
The third seed will now meet Alexandra Eala for the third time after the 29th seed became the first Filipina in the Open Era to reach the third round in SW19 with a three-set success over Serena Williams’ conqueror Maya Joint.
The head-to-head stands at 1-1 with Iga winning in three sets on the clay of Madrid last year after the Filipina had won in two in Miami a couple of months earlier.
It’s evident Eala is a tricky match-up for Swiatek and we expect her to cause problems in this latest showdown. It promises to be a clash with plenty of games and there’s real scope for it going three.
Alexandra Eala vs Iga Swiatek tip: Over 21.5 games
