Barbora Krejcikova vs Anna Blinkova prediction
Barbora Krejcikova’s strong run of form continued in Seoul as she reached the quarter-finals of the Korea Open. Krejcikova produced another fine turnaround in her round-of-16 match against Emma Raducanu as she saved multiple match points to come from behind and win. Her run ended with a tame defeat to eventual champion Iga Swiatek but Krejcikova has now reached the last eight of her last two tournaments, with one being the US Open.
Anna Blinkova enters the event as a lucky loser. She lost in the first stage of qualifying to Kyoka Okamura. She has reached three quarter-finals this season but her form has taken a huge slide over the last couple of months, and she has failed to win consecutive matches at a tournament since achieving the feat in Eastbourne back in June.
Krejcikova leads the head-to-head 2-0 on the WTA Tour, with both matches having been played on hard court. This should be a comfortable victory for the Czech, who is enjoying her best run of performances since returning from injury in May.
