Kimberly Birrell seeks another victory over fellow unseeded player Ana Bogdan in their next matchup in Hong Kong. They will battle in the first round with the winner progressing to face Leylah Fernandez or Heather Watson. Let’s have a look at the stats and a prediction for this match.
Ana Bogdan saw her form improve a bit over the past seven days, and she will be keen to keep this going.
The Romanian, who has compiled a topsy-turvy 20-23 record, won four matches last week in her run to the quarter-finals in Osaka. Now with an 11-11 hard court record, she starts a new week ranked 109th in the WTA.
Kimberly Birrell also had a superb week in Osaka. Starting the tournament as a qualifier, the Australian fought against the odds to reach the final.
That was her maiden tour final and she will hope to pick up from where she left off. Currently ranked 115th in the WTA, Birrell has compiled a 39-26 record competing across the three WTA levels.
The 26-year-old is a strong hardcourt player and, in her career, has managed over 150 wins on the surface. One of those victories was a 2-1 success against Bogdan in Adelaide two years ago.
