2022 champion Iga Swiatek will face Ukraine's Elina Svitolina in the fourth round of the Miami Open on Tuesday, March 25.
Trending
Swiatek has been in scintillating form in Miami this week and will be eager to put her Indian Wells semifinal heartbreak behind her. Having received a first-round bye, the World No. 2 defeated France's Caroline Garcia 6-2, 7-5 in her opener before getting the better of 27th-seeded Elise Mertens 7-6(2), 6-1 on Sunday (March 23) to reach the fourth round of the Florida event.
Svitolina, meanwhile, reached the quarterfinals of the BNP Paribas Open last week. The Ukrainian has carried her rich vein of form into the Miami Open. The 22nd seed blitzed past reigning Dubai champion Belinda Bencic 6-1, 6-2 in her opener. Having reached the semifinals of the 2021 edition of the tournament, she overcame 15th-seeded Karolina Muchova 6-2, 3-6, 6-2 to book her place in the second week of the WTA 1000 tournament.

Iga Swiatek vs Elina Svitolina prediction
Swiatek has been hitting a heavy ball at the 2025 Miami Open, with her forehand having been her biggest weapon thus far. While the 23-year-old is a solid defender from the baseline, her ability to hit short angles and be the aggressor during rallies is understated.
Svitolina is not as aggressive as her younger opponent. The 30-year-old, however, has the basics of the game nailed down to a tee, thanks to her impressive footwork and shot selection. She will have to serve consistently well in her Round-of-16 meeting against Swiatek.
While the former World No. 3 can spring up an upset on the second seed, the latter has looked very determined this week to win her first pro title since the 2024 French Open. In that context, the 23-year-old Pole will likely navigate past the World No. 22's challenge and reach the last eight in Miami.
Pick: Swiatek to win in straight sets.
