Iga Swiatek vs Eva Lys prediction, betting tips & odds, head-to-head, preview: Australian Open 2025

Iga Swiatek hammered former Grand Slam winner Emma Raducanu in her third round.

Iga Swiatek recorded a statement victory over US Open 2021 champion, Emma Raducanu, beating the young Brit 6-1 6-1. The nature of her domination against a fine player highlighted Swiatek’s excellent form. The Pole was unrelenting as she switched on a rare aggressive game, and her consistency on power shots left Raducanu clueless on the court.

Swiatek has been in complete control in all her matches so far and looks set to make history in the Australian Open 2025. With every win, she not only gets closer to the championship title but also increases the pressure on Aryna Sabalenka in the race for the world number-one ranking.

Match details

• Tournament: Australian Open 2025
• Stage: Round-four
• Date: January 20
• Venue: Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne
• Surface: Hard Court (Outdoor)

Preview

Iga Swiatek has lost only ten games so far in the three matches she has played at the Australian Open 2025, blowing away all her opponents in a formidable fashion. Her performance so far could potentially be her best in Melbourne but the Pole must maintain this level to prevent any slip-up.

A spot in the quarterfinals awaits the former World Number One, and in her way is the lucky loser, Eva Lys, who has had an inspired journey. Already her best performance in a Grand Slam, Lys lost to Destanee Aiava in the final qualifier game. The German was set to return home to celebrate her birthday but was informed only 10 minutes before the first round regarding 13th seed Anna Kalinskaya’s withdrawal.

Taking advantage of the luck that came her way, Lys defeated local hope Kimberly Birrell in the first round in straight sets and Varvara Gracheva in the second round in a closely fought three-setter. In her third round, the German came from a set down to eliminate Jaqueline Cristian, thereby becoming the first-ever player to reach the round of 16 of women’s singles at the Australian Open since 1988.

Eva Lys will now play potentially the most important match of her career for a quarterfinal berth, against 5-time Grand Slam champion Iga Swiatek.
