Linda Noskova vs Sorana Cirstea prediction
Linda Noskova will feel her season is still to catch fire.
The Czech has picked up wins without managing to trouble the latter stages of her three tournaments so far.
The world number 14 will hope that changes here after battling to a 6-3 5-7 6-4 success over Ann Li.
The 21-year-old now meets veteran Sorana Cirstea, who stretched her winning streak to six matches with a 6-3 7-6 triumph over Aliaksandra Sasnovich.
So, will it be unlucky number seven for the 35-year-old Romanian who lost her only previous clash with Noskova in Brisbane two years ago?
Quite possibly given Linda’s easy power, but Cirstea is playing some high quality tennis right now and you can’t rule her out. It feels like there are plenty of games in this one, so over 22.5 or over 2.5 sets seems viable.
Linda Noskova vs Sorana Cirstea tip: Over 2.5 sets
