A breakthrough moment awaits at the Guadalajara Open as Iva Jovic, 17, meets 23-year-old Emiliana Arango in the final. This is the two players’ first meeting. Read on to find our prediction of the match.

Jovic, the youngest player inside the top 100, hopes to put a marker on her most significant week. She defeated Czech’s Nikola Bartunkova in three sets to reach her first ever WTA final.

That was the third time at this event that she played three-set matches. Even after racking up nine hours on the court, the American will be confident of edging this. Powering to the final has her on 34-13 for the season and 51st in the live rank, a new record.

Arango is another youngster this week to have defied the form book to reach her second final this season. Her star could be seen in her first-round match against fifth seed Magda Linette, who would retire after the first set.

She is not too far away in terms of ranking as compared to Jovic. Having not dropped a set here and one of her opponents retiring, Arango has saved up to four hours on Jovic. That could prove a difference.

Like her American opponent, the Colombian is vying for a first tour-level title. She defeated French opponent Elsa Jacquemot in straight sets to punch her final ticket and improved to 25-20, while she’s now 55th in the live rank.
