Iga Swiatek vs Eva Lys preview
World No. 1 Iga Swiatek will take on qualifier Eva Lys in the second round of the 2022 Porsche Tennis Grand Prix on Wednesday.
The last couple of months have witnessed Swiatek underline her dominance of the WTA tour. It all began at the Qatar Open, the first WTA 1000 event of the year. She defeated three top-10 players to lift the trophy, crushing Anett Kontaveit 6-2, 6-0 in the final.
Swiatek then won the Indian Wells Open, defeating Maria Sakkari 6-4, 6-1 for the title. By winning her opening-round match at the Miami Open, she clinched the World No. 1 ranking as well. The 20-year-old also won the title in Miami after defeating four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka 6-4, 6-0 in the final.
Swiatek continued her winning ways at the Billie Jean King Cup last week. She put up dominating performances to win 6-1, 6-0 and 6-0, 6-0 over Mihaela Buzarnescu and Andreea Prisacariu respectively, sending Poland to the Finals.
Eva Lys, meanwhile, booked her spot in the main draw after winning a couple of tough qualifying matches. She defeated Cristina Bucsa 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 and Kathinka von Deichmann 6-3, 7-5.
Up against the experienced Viktorija Golubic in the first round, Lys got off to a slow start as she lost the opening set. But the German youngster didn't lose her nerve and staged a comeback to eventually win 5-7, 7-5, 7-5. It was a momentous occasion for her, as it marked her maiden victory at the WTA level.
Iga Swiatek vs Eva Lys head-to-head
Swiatek and Lys have never played each other on tour, so the head-to-head stands at 0-0.
Iga Swiatek vs Eva Lys prediction
Swiatek's on a 19-match winning streak at the moment, so she's the overwhelming favorite to win this contest. The World No. 1 has been in total command over the last two months and she's unlikely to relinquish that control now.
Lys displayed glimpses of her potential during her first-round win over Golubic in Stuttgart. The German played proactive tennis, especially on the big points. Lys' serving stats were also decent, but she'll need to raise her level significantly against the top seed.
The World No. 1 hasn't put a foot wrong recently and it's hard to imagine her stumbling against a player ranked outside the top 300.
Lys' lack of experience on the main tour is likely to be exposed by Swiatek, who should be able to romp to another comfortable victory.
Pick: Iga Swiatek to win in straight sets.
