Third seed Elena Rybakina will face ninth seed Elina Svitolina in the semi-finals of the BNP Paribas Open. This is the seventh career meeting between the two, and the winner will set up a showdown in the final with Aryna Sabalenka or Linda Noskova. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Rybakina is now just two wins away from a second title at Indian Wells. The world number three triumphed here in 2023 for her first WTA 1000 title. As she has been one of the top players this year, she is one of the favorites to emerge victorious at the end of the week.
Rybakina, this year’s Australian Open champion, has won 16 of 19 outings. To advance to the final, the 26-year-old defeated fifth seed Jessica Pegula in straight sets.
Elina Svitolina defeated Rybakina in their most recent meeting. This was last year on clay in Madrid. The win allowed her to tie this series at 3-3.
The Ukrainian has been in splendid form this year and has a strong chance of not only making the final but winning her first Indian Wells title. Svitolina has lost just three of the 22 matches she has contested in 2026.
This has led to a title in Auckland, a runner-up finish in Dubai, and a run to the semi-finals in Melbourne. Back amongst the top 10 in the WTA, Svitolina has moved up to eight in the live ranking. She defeated second seed and former Indian Wells champion Iga Swiatek in three sets in the semis.
