Naomi Osaka vs Alexandra Eala prediction
Naomi Osaka hit back to deny Elisabetta Cocciaretto another scalp and reach the last four in Washington.
The Japanese maintained her push for a first WTA tour-level title since 2021 with a 4-6 6-4 6-3 triumph over the dangerous Italian.
The third seed’s bid to reach her second final of 2026 will now put her up against Alexandra Eala, who shocked second seed Elina Svitolina with a 6-3 6-4 victory.
Both players are full of confidence and playing excellent tennis right now. That could mean we have a thrilling battle on our hands and plenty of games. If pushed for the outright winner, we say Osaka but backing over 20.5 games feels like a better option.
Naomi Osaka vs Alexandra Eala tip: Over 20.5 games
