The Elina Svitolina vs Anhelina Kalinina match is set to be a blockbuster event as both the Ukraine stars are set to collide. This will be the second meeting between the duo, with Svitolina winning their last encounter to get a 1-0 lead in head-to-head.

Elina Svitolina started the season off with a bang, with a great run in Auckland. The 29-year-old reached the final of the tournament but ended up losing to Coco Gauff in the final. Later, the Ukrainian reached the fourth round of the Australian Open and was looking good for a long run.

However, her tournament was cut short due to an injury, resulting in a forfeit. Now, the 29-year-old is back from injury and would be confident of a successful comeback.

On the other hand, her Ukrainian counterpart, Anhelina Kalinina has had a tough start to the season. The 27-year-old is yet to get past the second round so far this season including first round loss at the Australian Open.
