Tip and bets
In a recent Melbourne match Swiatek experienced no problems against Kasatkina. We don't think that something changed since then.

In Melbourne opponents played 17 games in two sets of a head-to-head match. Since the start of the year Kasatkina lost only three matches and all of these matches she lost by a wide margin. We are not expecting more than 20 games to be played in Dubai.
