Excepting that Kristina is a worthy finalist, is she the sort who might underestimate Simon and take her foot off the gas? My fear is that she might assume Simon to be a bit of a lightweight, and think she has this in the bag, even if she fails the final task - is she too professional to let this one go because of arrogance?

I can see Simon working extra hard to win, as he probably knows Kristina is a very strong rival, and that he has more to prove (it could be argued he got into the final by default with Katie declining the offer).

From what I've seen over the weeks, Kristina gives her all to every single task and I don't think she will get complacent at all.

I'm sure Kristina knows that Simon is in the final not purely down to talent but also due to Siralan inexplicably seeing whatever Simon does as yet another sign of him being a potential Apprentice - that is far harder to fight against so there is no way she will think she has it in the bag at this stage.

The fact that he's there will tell Kristina there is something Sir Alan is seeing that perhaps doesn't shine out from the tasks themselves. I don't think she is the type of person who will get over confident, but I am more than a bit worried that some other people from The Apprentice won't put their full effort in.

No. Everyone expected Simon to be fired when his team lost the QVC task. And they were surprised to see him come back. If anything this tells Kristina that there are factors other than skill and acumen that have got him this far and for that she'll work even harder.

She'd be a fool to under-estimate him and I don't for one minute think that she is. If Simon wins the task it'll be because of his team. Remember the people who I think will be on his team do work well together and have won more times than they have lost. As William96 has said her main worry will be if other members don't put their full effort in.
