Tip and bets
In our opinion, World No. 1 player will secure an easy victory here. Bucsa managed to beat Andreescu, but she gave it all in that match. Cristina's serve is not good enough to compete against the best player in the world.
Our prediction - Handicap (-7) games on Swiatek
We are not expecting a miracle today. Bucsa's serving performance was far from perfect even in a successful match against Andreescu. Spaniard is unlikely to win more than six games here.
