Aryna Sabalenka faces Elena Rybakina in the round-robin stages of the WTA Finals. Sabalenka has already won this group, while Rybakina cannot qualify for the semi-finals after two defeats. Read our match prediction.
The defeat for Iga Swiatek against Coco Gauff on Tuesday means that Sabalenka will end this year as world number one. It also means that if Swiatek finishes second in her group, the Pole will face Sabalenka in the last four.
Sabalenka is in excellent form at present with her first serve proving to be a nightmare for her opponents. Three of her last four tournaments have been won. In this tournament, the world number one has had straight sets wins over Qinwen Zheng and Jasmine Paolini.
Elena Rybakina trails her opponent 6-3 in previous meetings with two of the last three being lost. This is her first tournament since the US Open and it's not gone well for her. After being beaten by Jasmine Paolini in straight sets, she lost in three to Qinwen Zheng.
Two matches so far have seen her make nearly 100 unforced errors and that has to be improved on. Rybakina lost to Sabalenka in this tournament last year and we tip her to be beaten again, this time in straight sets.
