Nao Hibino vs Olga Danilovic prediction

Nao Hibino will hope a title-run at a Challenger in Incheon can provide the impetus to secure a shock win over Olga Danilovic. 

The Japanese world number 168 has only notched two tour-level wins this year but will hope the sixth seed’s poor form of late will work in her favour. 

Danilovic has lost her last three and has managed just one victory in her previous six, leading to a drop out of the top 40. 

There is no previous head-to-head and while the Serb is a clear favourite in terms of ranking, the fact Hibino will be motivated to make her mark on home turf could make this one to consider the shock in.
