Leylah Fernandez vs Kamilla Rakhimova prediction

Leylah Fernandez will be fresh for her semi-final showdown with Kamilla Rakhimova.

The Canadian was handed a walkover after world number one Elena Rybakina withdrew prior to the match through injury.

The world number 23 will now face Rakhimova for a fourth time as a result of the Uzbekistani underdog’s 7-5 5-7 6-1 win over Maya Joint.

Fernandez leads the head-to-head 2-1 but lost 2-6 6-4 3-6 to Kamilla in Wuhan earlier this month.

The world number 66 will hope lightning strikes twice in the Asian swing, but Leylah is sure to provide her biggest test yet here and we lean towards the former US Open runner-up in this one, although a decent swell of games looks likely too.
