Aoi Ito will be targeting an early upset at the Beijing Open on Thursday. She will be up against Kimberly Birrell in the first round, marking a third meeting between the two players. Birrell won the earlier two encounters, and our prediction backs her for the same here.
This is Ito’s Beijing Open debut, and it is a tough one for the Japanese athlete. The 22-year-old has not won a first-round match this season, compiling a 0-4 record at that stage.
She is coming from the Singapore Open, where her journey ended in the qualifying rounds following a three-set defeat against Nao Hibino. So far, she has compiled a 16-24 record and sits 330th in the live ranking.
Birrell is well positioned to put up her best run at the Beijing Open. She is on her fourth appearance, but in the earlier three, she’s never made it past the first round.
The Australian is coming from a triumphant run in Singapore, where she beat Maya Joint in the title match for her first WTA tour-level gong. The 28-year-old will be looking to go a step higher, to win a WTA 1000 title.
She has the momentum, having won five straight matches. Her maiden title sent her to 42nd in the live ranking, which is a record high.

Birrell has already beaten this opponent twice before and will come here with the upper hand.
Ito is struggling, having suffered five losses in the last nine outings. Facing a player on six wins in seven outings and having never won a set against her adds to our feeling that this will go Birrell’s way. Our prediction for Aoi Ito v Kimberly Birrell is the exact score: 0-2.
