WTA Cincinnati Day 1 Predictions

Yulia Putinsteva vs Renata Zarazua

Head-to-head: First meeting

Putintseva’s nightmare season continued in the opening rounds of the Citi DC Open and the National Bank Open. At her best, the Kazakhstani would be an overwhelming favorite to defeat Zarazua. At the moment, it is challenging to trust her against any opponent. The Mexican has a good chance of winning a match that is almost certain to feature many lengthy rallies.

Prediction: Zarazua in 3

Katie Boulter vs Olga Danilovic

Head-to-head: First meeting

Boulter lost her first two matches of the North American swing, and Danilovic was defeated in her first at the National Bank Open. Although Boulter possesses more firepower, Danilovic’s left-handed forehand into Boulter’s backhand could decide this encounter. The Briton’s backhand is her weaker wing by far, and she struggles off it against heavy spin.

Prediction: Danilovic in 3
