THE PREDICTION
Former world number one Karolina Pliskova conceded just four games to Xiyu Wang on Tuesday to snap a troublesome four-match losing streak that stretches back to mid-October at the San Diego Open. The 30-year-old is currently ranked at world number 31st after a middling, largely frustrating 2022 season but runs to the semi-finals at the Canada Masters and the quarter-finals at the US Open on the late hardcourt swing are proof that she can burst back into form at a moment’s notice. World number 47 Yulia Putintseva came back from a set down to beat Sorana Cirstea on Tuesday in keeping with some solid form from a run to the quarter-final at the Hobart International last week. The Kazakh is one of the more unpredictable players on the WTA tour but she has lost all five of her tour-level encounters with Pliskova, most recently in Cincinnati in 2021, to suggest this is the Czech’s match to lose. Pliskova is hard to back with confidence right now but she should be coming through the outright winner here.
