THE PREDICTION
World number 10 Elena Rybakina played well to beat Bianca Andreescu in straight sets, with her opponent requiring a medical time out during the match. The 23-year-old reached her second Grand Slam final in three major tournaments at the Australian Open last month and took the first set before defeat to Aryba Sabalenka in three but she looks to have reacted to that disappointment well so far. World number 26 Marie Bouzkova conceded just two games to Sofia Kenin on Sunday in a welcome return to some strong tennis but it was only her second win of the season so far. The Czech reached the semi-finals of the Guadalajara Masters late last season to prove her credentials at this level but Rybakina is one of the clear title contenders here in Dubai and this looks the Kalakh’s match to lose. Their last encounter went to three sets at the Canada Masters in August last year but Rybakina leads Bouzkova 3-0 in their head-to-head and she can be backed to win this outright.
