Jessica Bouzas Maneiro vs Taylor Townsend prediction
It has been quite the tournament for Spain’s Jessica Bouzas Maneiro already in Cincinnati but the 22-year-old will be hoping to extend her time on court a little longer.
She beat legend Venus Williams in the first round 6-4 6-4 and then had a tough assignment in the shape of 21-seed Leylah Fernandez in the second. She came through that one 6-3 6-3 and her confidence will be high coming into this one.
She takes on Taylor Townsend who is fine form herself and is fully of confidence and belief herself. She produced a superb performance in beating Liudmila Samsonova 6-2 6-4 and it was a really strong complete display.
The 29-year-old is playing some of the best tennis of her career right now in both singles and doubles tennis and she will be a tough test for anybody.
We really like the look of this match between two in-form players and this makes for a fascinating encounter. Our preference is with Bouzas Maneiro however and the momentum she has around her right now. Townsend is on fire but her activity in both formats may well catch up with her and we lean towards the Spaniard.
