Marie Bouzkova vs Viktorija Golubic prediction
Marie Bouzkova takes on old foe Viktorija Golubic for a spot in the quarter-finals.
This will be their sixth encounter with the Czech fifth seed leading 3-2 overall.
The last two encounters were split on hardcourts last year but Bouzkova will feel her form is red-hot at the moment as she dropped just two games in her opener here and has only been beaten by Iga Swiatek and Jasmine Paolini in her previous seven outings.
Golubic made it six straight wins with a hard-fought three-set success over Bianca Andreescu to follow up her Challenger title in Suzhou.
The Swiss may well take a set here given the close battles they have had and her imprived confidence, but if you are looking for an outright winner, the better bet is likely to be Bouzkova, who is currently operating at a very high level.
Marie Bouzkova vs Viktorija Golubic tip: Over 2.5 sets
