14:00 Elina Svitolina – Daniela Hantuchova

Hantuchova is highly underrated here. The Slovakian is playing excellent tennis and this year he won a title already. She is crafty on all surfaces and he has good serve and nice base lien strokes. Something more she is crafty near the net. Svitolina’s career is in rise, but she is coming after five matches played in Marrakech. The Ukrainian has excellent footwork and her backhand is superb, but the fatigue will say her word and in my opinion Hantuchova can pull this one out. The odd is good and I have no hesitations.
