Nao Hibino vs Mia Pohankova prediction

Nao Hibino will be desperate to claim just a third tour-level victory of 2025 in Chennai.

The Japanese world number 174 won a W100 title in Incheon at the end of September and faces an opponent sitting way down at 653 on the WTA ladder.

Mia Pohankova is a promising 17-year-old that has made baby steps on the ITF circuit over the last couple of years and has beaten players ranked higher than Hibino.

However, the Japanese former world number 56 has good form following that lower-tier title and should enjoy the conditions enough to see off the youngster in this one.
