THE PREDICTION
This is the third high-profile meeting between world number 24 Qinwen Zheng and number 13 Liudmila Samsonova in six months as both players continue to enjoy the form of their respective young careers. Samsonova took both meetings to win the Tokyo Open last September before a tighter three-set victory in the semi-finals at the Abu Dhabi Open two weeks ago but Qinwen Zheng is a serious opponent well capable of levelling their head-to-head at 2-1 after claiming their first encounter in 2021. 20-year-old Qinwen beat compatriot Shuai Zhang in comfortable straight sets for an early statement on Sunday but 14th see Samsonova came back from a set down to oust Paula Badosa in a more eye-catching results. Three sets seem likelier than two here so the sensible option is taking Samsonova to win at least a set and the slight risk is backing the Russian to edge it outright.
