THE PREDICTION

World number seven Ons Jabeur laboured to a three-set victory over veteran Vera Zvonareva on Thursday but there were a few glimpses of a return to her playful best on court. The 29-year-old has struggled to produce her free-flowing best since suffering another upset in the Wimbledon final, this time to Marketa Vondrosuova, but victories over Elena Rybakina and Aryna Sabalenka before that are proof of the level she is capable of when on song. World number 87 Nadia Podoroska has been grafting hard this season to work her way back up the WTA rankings from a hefty absence in 2021, with this her second semi-final on tour in as many months. The 26-year-old conceded just two games to Katerina Siniakova on Thursday to back-up an impressive opener over Guangzhou champion Xiyu Wang but this looks too steep a climb against the top seed. Back Jabeur to reach the final, probably in straight sets.
