Rybakina, Well-Rested for the Final Showdown
World No. 26 Elena Rybakina is all set to make her stand in the year’s final WTA 1000 event. Starting as an unseeded player (like Pliskova) in Guadalajara, she will fancy her chances.
After all, her record stands at a formidable 38-19 – which includes the historic Wimbledon title and a couple of runner-up silverware from Adelaide and Portoroz.
Most recently, Rybakina was a semifinalist in Ostrava, where she ultimately lost to Barbora Krejcikova. She was slated to compete in San Diego next but chose to skip it and focus her efforts here.
Of course, Elena’s imposing form is also supported by her impressive victories against the giants like Simona Halep, Ons Jabeur, Garbine Muguruza, Petra Kvitova, and Victoria Azarenka.

Pliskova, Low on Form
By contrast, 2022 has been a season to forget for Karolina Pliskova – largely due to illness and injury recovery. Nonetheless, she has done well to be at 21-18 with a prize money pool of a million dollars.
After scraping through the first half of the season with erratic results, the former World No. 1 picked up the pace in North American swing by reaching the semis in Toronto and, later, the quarters in the US Open.
In these events, we got a glimpse of Pliskova’s menacing form, seeing her beat Barbora Krejcikova, Amanda Anisimova, Maria Sakkari, and Belinda Bencic.
However, Karolina fell early in her next three events in Tokyo, Ostrava, and San Diego. It has been a litany of mixed results by the current #22.
Pliskova v Rybakina Prediction and Tip
The match can swing either way. Rybakina is the odds-on favourite, but Pliskova is poised to carve upsets. Expect an entertaining match that can see a fair number of games.
