Elina Svitolina vs. Linda Noskova: Match Preview

Svitolina reaches the fourth round at the Australian Open for the fourth time in her career. A two-time quarter-finalist at the Major, the Ukrainian, is yet to lose a set this week at the Melbourne Park. She defeated Viktorija Golubic 6-2, 6-3 in the third round to advance further.

The former World No. 3 reached back-to-back quarter-finals in 2018 and 2019. The Ukrainian is yet to make the semi-finals in Australia and French Open. This year, however, she stands a good chance owing to her good form. All three of her matches this week have not gone beyond 65 minutes, giving a testament to her dominant performances so far.

Linda Noskova is enjoying the best week of her career so far. Playing in the main draw at the Australian Open for the very first time, she has been impressive throughout. She defeated Marie Bouzkova in the first round and followed it up with a three-set win over McCartney Kessler.

Up against World No. 1 Iga Swiatek in the third round, Noskova won the tie 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. The win over the Pole made her the first teenager in 25 years to defeat the World No. 1 at the Australian Open, leaving the Pole irritated. Immediately after the win, the Czech broke down in tears overjoyed by the win. She is now on her best run ever at a Grand Slam.

This will be the first-ever match between the two women, hence the head-to-head stands at 0-0.
