Ons Jabeur and Elina Svitolina go head to head in a mouth-watering third-round showdown at Wimbledon on Saturday.
One of the most eye-catching ties of round three at SW19 sees the two-time runner-up lock horns with the two-time semi-finalist on Centre Court.
A beaten finalist in each of the last two years, Jabeur’s quest to go one better has started in an ideal manner.
The Tunisian has reeled off four sets without reply in her victories over Moyuka Uchijima and Robin Montgomery.
Meanwhile, Svitolina battled past Magda Linette in the opening round, before seeing off 2022 quarter-finalist Jule Niemeier in straight sets to reach round three at her seventh successive major.
The Ukrainian enjoyed a wonderful run to the semi-finals 12 months ago – beating Venus Williams, Sofia Kenin, Victoria Azarenka and world number one Iga Swiatek along the way – and will hope for another deep run this time around.
The winner of this clash will play either Harriet Dart or Wang Xinyu in the fourth round.
The match gets under way at around 4.30pm BST on Saturday and will be contested over the best of three sets on Centre Court.
Ons Jabeur v Elina Svitolina prediction
This really is a difficult one to call between two players with experience of going deep at the All England Club.
Svitolina was a finalist in Auckland at the start of 2024, but has endured a generally inconsistent season since, while bowing out in the first round at Bad Homburg last time out.
Meanwhile, Jabeur has reached four quarter-finals, including Madrid and Roland Garros, and could have gone further in Berlin had she not been forced to retire injured.
With slightly more consistent performance levels, that may just tilt the contest in the Tunisian’s favour.
