THE PREDICTION
This is clearly the vital clash of the tie between world number eight Maria Sakkari and former number 13 Leylah Fernandez, with Felix Auger-Aliassime’s absence in the men’s match more than likely gifting Greece a simple 1-0 lead. 21-year-old Fernandez dragged Canada over the line against Chile on Saturday with a comfortable victory over Daniele Seguel in the singles before a commanding role in the doubles alongside substitute Steven Diez and the pair will have a real shot at a remarkable qualification if Fernandez can beat Sakkari for the first time. That looks a very steep test given Sakkari has won both of their previous matches in straight sets, including at the Citi Open last August, but the Greek often struggles under pressure and Fernandez is in some of her better form in recent years. Back Fernandez to earn at least a set through sheer will as she tries to keep Canada in the tie, just as she did in leading her nation to a first ever Billie Jean King Cup title in November.
TIP: LEYLAH FERNANDEZ TO WIN A SET
