The WTA 250 Cleveland has finally entered the semi-final stages, with Ann Li and Xinyu Wang clashing in the second game for a spot in the final. Both players have shown resilience to reach this stage, with each grinding out a three-set victory in their respective quarterfinal clashes. Read on to discover our best Ann Li vs Xinyu Wang match prediction.

Ann Li knocked out Elsa Jacquemot with a 2-1 win, while Xinyu Wang took down Viktorija Golubic by the same scoreline. However, despite their similar recent form, the past history between these two players points to a clear favorite. Xinyu Wang has consistently gotten the better of Li, particularly on the hardcourt surface, and will be looking to continue her dominance. 

While both players have had a relatively similar performance record on hardcourt in 2025, it is their head-to-head history that truly separates them. Wang has won both of their previous encounters in straight sets, a trend that’s hard to ignore given the consistent nature of the victories.

Li, for her part, has shown vulnerability on the hardcourt surface recently, losing three of her last six hardcourt singles matches and conceding at least one set in five of those six games. Wang, on the other hand, has won seven of her last nine hardcourt singles, showcasing a more consistent and dominant form that is essential in high-stakes matches like a semi-final.
