It's time for the live stream of Elina Svitolina vs. Leila Annie Fernandez. On one side of the court we have a highly ranked star and she is an up-and-coming prodigy who has already surprised us all. So who will win this US Open live stream?

Experts favor Svitolina. Svitolina won their first and only previous meeting in Monterrey in 2020. She won 6-4, 7-4 and enters this tournament having beaten her last four U.S. Open opponents in straight sets, including a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Simona Halep in the round of 16.

Svitolina was dominant in the match, serving up five aces and only one double fault. With Osaka and Barty out, she is now a major threat to win her first Grand Slam tournament.

Nevertheless, 73rd-ranked Fernandez beat 2020 Open champion Naomi Osaka in the third round (5-7, 7(7)-6(2), 6-4) and No. 17 Angelique Kerber of Germany in round 16 (6-4, 6(5)-7(7), 2-6).

Fernandez showed a solid will to come back, coming back from a set down against Kerber and Osaka. Here's how to watch Elina Svitolina vs. Leila Annie Fernandez online:
