THE PREDICTION
Two Belgian former world number 12s meet for the first time here with 33-year-old Yanina Wickmayer enjoying her recent return to tour tennis and Mertens seeking a much-needed strong run. World number 72 Wickmayer recently reached the semi-finals of the Poland Open before a competitive defeat to eventual champion Iga Swiatek and she has won her opening match in each of her last three tournaments to look a threat here. World number 29 Mertens was stunned early at the San Diego Open last week, taking just four games against Sloane Stephens, but her run to the third round of the US Open saw three three-set matches, including a defeat to eventual champion Coco Gauff, to suggest she is well capable of finding some form. Recent wins over Madison Keys and Danielle Collins say Mertens can come through here but an outright call is the sensible one.
