Lanlana Tararudee vs Kaitlin Quevedo prediction

Kaitlin Quevedo will feature for the first time since winning the title in São Paulo.

The Spaniard claimed her maiden tour-level title on what has been a promising breakthrough campaign, but it’s clear her preference is clay.

The 20-year-old may be undercooked arriving here and Lanlana Tararudee has been active, picking up regular wins and making her mark predominantly on hardcourts.

That surface factor and the Spaniard’s lack of recent match sharpness means I’d edge towards the Thai star if looking at the outright winner.
