Leylah Fernandez vs Magda Linette prediction
Leylah Fernandez will look to arrest a poor run of form in Washington.
The Canadian has only won one of her last seven matches and knows that Polish world number 51 Magda Linette has been more consistent than her this season.
Seventh seed, Fernandez will look to a head-to-head that sees her lead 3-1 and we expect her to come good on the hardcourts, but Magda may provide a scare along the way.
