Iva Jovic vs Sara Bejlek prediction

Third seed Iva Jovic will take on Sara Bejlek in a battle of the teenagers in Auckland. 

The American 18-year-old hit back to beat Gabriela Knutson 4-6 6-1 6-0 and will now meet another Czech for a place in the last eight. 

Bejlek, 19, is ranked just inside the top 100 and was very solid in her 7-5 6-1 success over Panna Upvardy. 

This will be their first meeting and the obvious pick is the seed, ranked at 35 in the world. However, Jovic took time to find her rhythm in her opening win so don’t be too surprised if Bejlek nicks a set. 

Iva Jovic vs Sara Bejlek tip: Over 2.5 sets
