Leylah Fernandez vs Alexandra Eala prediction
Leylah Fernandez kicked off her Washington title defence with a dominant win over Magdalena Frech.
The Canadian saw off the Pole 6-1 6-4 to set up a second career clash with Alexandra Eala.
The Filipina claimed an impressive comeback win over Qinwen Zheng as she prevailed 4-6 6-4 6-1.
Fernandez won comfortably in straight sets when they met on clay in Stuttgart recently and we fancy the 2025 champion to come out on top again, but this time it’s likely to be highly competitive.
