Belinda Bencic vs Magda Linette prediction
Belinda Bencic will hope to continue a solid Asian-swing at the Ningbo Open.
The Swiss reached the round of 16 in Beijing and Wuhan with her two defeats coming against Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff respectively.
The former Olympic champion is now up to 15 in the world and will be confident going up against Magda Linette for a second time having defeated the Pole 6-3 6-1 at Wimbledon last year.
Linette has lost her last five matches and is in need of a reset, but it’s unlikely to happen here if Bencic is on the ball.
