Two seeds meet in the third round of the 2025 Wimbledon Championships. 14th seed Elina Svitolina takes on Elise Mertens who is seeded 24th. Who will progress and face either Aryna Sabalenka or Emma Raducanu in the last 16? Here's our match prediction.
This is the only last 32 match in the top half of the draw in which two seeds are meeting. A win for Elise Mertens will equal her best result of a fourth round in this grass court Grand Slam having previously done so in 2019 and 2022.
It's been a good grass court season so far for her with the Libema Open title won. However, in the Bad Homburg Open, the Belgian lost in round one to her opponent in this match. So far at Wimbledon, Mertens had to go to a final set to beat Ann Li in round two and is 21st in the live rankings.
Svitolina reached the quarter-finals here last year. In 2019 and 2023 the Ukrainian was a Wimbledon semi-finalist. This year has seen her win one clay court tournament. It's been a consistent 2025 so far with at least round four reached in seven tournaments.
Her two wins in this tournament have seen her lose only ten games and now13th in the live rankings. We tip her to beat Mertens.
