This is one contest in which it seems difficult to pick a winner. However, it is going to be a battle between the experience of one, and the raw hunger of the other. Giving their current form, it seems the match will be going the distance.

The longer the match goes on, the more advantage Sabalenka will have. However, the winner will be decided by who maintains composure during the crunch points. 

Prediction: Aryna Sabalenka to win in three sets.
