THE PREDICTION

World number one Iga Swiatek looks fully committed to winning the United Cup for Poland, perhaps in part as a consolidation after she was forced to miss out on the Billie Jean King Cup for a second season running in November. The 22-year-old won the WTA Finals for the first time to lift her 17th WTA title, including four Grand Slams, and she should be considered a serious contender for the Australian Open next month if she can maintain her current form – with which she beat world number 11 Beatriz Haddad-Maia in straight sets on Saturday.

World number 48 Sara Sorribes Tormo lost her opening United Cup match to Haddad-Maia in straight sets but she was part of an exciting Spanish partnership with Alejandro Davidovich Fokina that snatched the tie 2-1 to keep their hopes alive and she could prove vital in a potential decider here. However, SST’s entertaining defensive game has provably little effect against Swiatek, who excels in dismantling rally-players. Back the Pole to win 2-0, as she did in both of their meetings last season.

TIP: IGA SWIATEK TO WIN 2-0
