Xiyu Wang vs Xinyu Wang prediction

There will be plenty of home interest in the ‘Battle of the Wangs’ in Wuhan.

Xiyu will be the underdog as the lower-ranked Chinese hopeful, while Xinyu also leads the head-to-head 2-0.

It seems like a clear pick given their respective standings at present and the fact Xiyu hasn’t featured since the US Open.

Xinyu didn’t make much impression in Beijing, so she will be eager to kick-on here and we expect her to progress, it just depends on whether it’s in two or three.
