Our Ann Li vs Iga Swiatek Prediction
The Difference Maker: Li is coming into the match brimming with confidence against a player she has already defeated before. Li’s play style of taking the ball early and redirecting shots could take Swiatek out of her comfort zone again, as other flat hitters did to her in the past.
What to Expect: Swiatek remains the solid pick to advance into the semis because of her championship pedigree, but Li has a real shot at covering +4.5 games in this matchup.
Fearless Forecast: Iga Swiatek wins 4-6, 7-5, 6-4
Our betting prediction for Ann Li vs. Iga Swiatek: Ann Li +4.5 games
