I think the wind factor bothers Stephens more in this one. If you look where her success came from here in Miami, it was well placed deep ball. Pushing opponent back, waiting for the opportunity to step into the court and go for it. With wind, finding that depth on your ground strokes consistantly is problematic.
and speaking about movement, yes Stephens does move well side to side, but her footwork can be off if you are able to hit into her legs, which is definitely something Vika can do.

Not saying that she can't win this one, because the way she way playing throughout the tournament, she deserves a lot of respect. Just pointing out some of the match up issues that she might have in this one.
