I have more faith in the fighting spirit of the top players than Mig.
Bareev is only a point behind Anand and a win by him could tie
for first.  As to Anand, he's only a half point ahead of Judit Polgar,
and with a quick draw he could come in second if Judit wins her game
against Radj.  Bareev has never beaten Anand before.  As for Radj he's
tied for fifth together with four others. Why not try to break out?
His only game with Judit a couple of years ago was a 66 move draw.
What more incentive than winning the tournament does Judit need?

No, we'll see some fighting chess today at Wijk.
