Iva Jovic vs Sofia Costoulas prediction

Iva Jovic was dominant in the key moments as she downed fellow teen Sara Bejlek to book a spot in the last eight in Auckland. 

The third seed battled back from an early deficit to claim a 7-6 6-4 win over the Czech. 

The American will now meet Sofia Costoulos after the 20-year-old Belgian demolished Kaitlin Quevedo 6-2 6-0. 

Costoulos hit six aces in a row at one point during the rout and is relishing this run on her main draw debut on tour.

Jovic will represent a step up in terms of a challenge and will offer fewer cheap points. 

The smart money is on Jovic to be more solid but Costoulos has nothing to lose and could represent value for a punt on taking a set or maintaining her shock streak. 

Iva Jovic vs Sofia Costoulas tip: Over 2.5 sets
