Svitolina v Andreeva Prediction

Andreeva has dropped 18 games in eight sets. Against Pegula she broke serve four times from nine chances and won 71 points to 57, and she has won the title on these courts before, at the 2025 BNP Paribas Open. She has also had the shorter week: her four matches took under five hours in total.

Svitolina has improved through the week. After the 6-4, 6-0 defeat by Andreeva on Monday she came from a set down against Karolína Muchová, beat Aryna Sabalenka in a deciding set, and took 65 minutes to beat Nosková, who served 11 double faults. She won this event in 2018, and she beat Andreeva the last time they met at a Grand Slam, in Melbourne in January.

The group match is the best guide. Andreeva won the second set 6-0, and nothing Svitolina has done since suggests she has found an answer to Andreeva’s return. Svitolina’s two three-set wins also mean she has spent about an hour and a half more on court than Andreeva this week.

Pick: Mirra Andreeva to win the WTA Finals. Before the semi-finals we picked her for the title, and that pick stands.

Doubles Final

Kateřina Siniaková and Taylor Townsend play Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini in the doubles final, also on Sunday. Siniaková and Townsend beat the top seeds, Gabriela Dabrowski and Luisa Stefani, 7-6(4), 6-3 in the semi-finals, and Errani and Paolini beat Hanyu Guo and Kristina Mladenovic 6-3, 6-4.
