Alexandra Eala vs Diane Parry prediction

Alexandra Eala will hope a strong run in Ningbo can ensure she ends the year inside the top 20.

The Filipina is one of the WTA’s rising stars but has lost her last three and knows Diane Parry is a tough opener here.

The French ace is having a strong season after a poor 2025, although she is currently on a four-match losing streak after impressing with a title run in Monterrey in the summer.

This will depend on how consistent Eala’s A-game is firing and if she finds her best level, she should cut through her opponent’s variety to progress.
