Jelena Ostapenko vs Elena-Gabriela Ruse prediction

Jelena Ostapenko bagged her tenth win of the season to reach the last eight in Linz.

The 2024 champion claimed her first success against Alexandra Eala courtesy of a 6-4 7-5 success.

The Latvian fourth seed will now face Elena Gabriela Ruse for the first time after the Romanian hit back to sink Dayana Yastremska 4-6 6-4 6-4.

The world number 87 has now won three of her last four having previously struggled for main draw victories in 2026.

Ruse is capable of causing problems on the dirt but these conditions suit Jelena and she’s a strong favourite to make the last four.
