Clara Tauson vs Nao Hibino prediction
Clara Tauson continues to look for a kick-start in 2026.
The Dane won two matches in Bad Homburg but they are her only victories in her last 11 outings.
The world number 30 will hope to improve upon that run when she meets Nao Hibino for a fourth time.
The Japanese world number 235 has only won two main draw matches this year and trails 2-1 in the head-to-head.
Tauson won twice in 2024 with Nao’s triumph way back in 2019.
The Scandinavian has too many weapons to continue to struggle and this could well be the moment.
