THE PREDICTION
This should be a good-natured match between two Ukrainians eager on maintain attention on their nation’s plight. World number 20 Elina Svitolina and number 32 Anhelina Kalinina have yet to meet at tour level but this could come very close indeed if former number three Svitolina has not fully recovered from the injury that saw her have to retire in the round of 16 at the Australian Open last month. 27-year-old Kalinina endured a tough start to the season but she has won in the first round in each of her last two tournaments, beating Lucia Bronzetti and Emma Raducanu, to look competitive in this fixture, although it is likely that Svitolina’s forceful new approach to her tennis will be too much. Svitolina should be winning this clash 2-0 at her peak but given her recent injury an outright win is the sensible option.
TIP: ELINA SVITOLINA TO WIN
