Barbora Krejcikova vs Qinwen Zheng prediction
Barbora Krejcikova meets Qinwen Zheng for the third time in a blockbuster quarter-final in Athens.
The Chinese Olympic champion has won her previous two meetings with the Czech two-tie Grand Slam champion and both players appear to be on an upward trajectory again after injury issues.
Third seed Krejcikova, who cruised past Carole Monnet 6-0 6-2, has more variety and a Plan B while Zheng’s raw power on a hardcourt is never easy to counter if she’s in full flow.
The Chinese world number 135 eased to a 6-Elena Micic 6-4 6-1 last time out will be confident given her previous history with Krejcikova.
We expect plenty of games in this and it may be well looking at the head-to-head and taking the punt on the lower ranked Zheng here.
