Veronika Erjavec vs Shuai Zhang prediction

Shuai Zhang will hope to shrug off her semi-final issues in Guangzhou when she kicks off in Hong Kong against Veronika Erjavec.

The Chinese world number 122 retired at 5-2 down in the opener versus Ann Li and will aim to have recovered in time for this encounter. 

Erjavec sits 22 places above her opponent in the rankings but has made limited impact on the main tour this year and has largely been playing on clay of late, where she picked up a lower-tier title at the Huzhou 125.

Zhang will be eager to impress in this neck of the woods and if she’s fit, she may well cause a mini upset of sorts here.
