Despite the fact that Elina Svitolina won all the direct matches against Johanna Konta, most of the matches were balanced, and the form shown by both players during this tournament is a remarkable one, and my forecast for this quarter final is a balanced and long match, most likely decided after a decisive set, but a game with a high number of games is the winner and only one set has been extended.
