Eva Lys and Anastasia Zakharova open the quarter-finals chapter of this year’s WTA 250 in Cleveland. And if their past meetings are anything to go by, this one promises to be another long evening on the hardcourt. Stay tuned for our Eva Lys vs Anastasia Zakharova match prediction.
Both players have taken a win apiece in their head-to-head battles, but more interestingly, both of those matches went the full distance.
Zakharova arrives here after a well deserved win over Hailey Baptiste in the Round of 16. While that ended in two sets, the Russian has gone to three sets in four of her last seven matches, and nine of her last twelve on all surfaces. She’s consistently engaged in drawn-out battles, not because of inconsistency, but due to her ability to rally back even when behind.
Lys, meanwhile, has not coasted through matches either. She’s conceded at least one set in three of her last five games, and two of her last four on hard courts have needed a decider. With both players showing a repeated tendency to split sets, it’s hard to imagine this ending in straight sets.

Our Eva Lys vs Anastasia Zakharova Prediction
The well-established trend when Eva Lys and Anastasia Zakharova share a court is that neither walks away easily. Both of their past duels reached three sets, and neither player is coming into this quarterfinal with a clean run of dominant wins.
Zakharova continues to attract marathon matches, while Lys has frequently been drawn into three-setters of her own, particularly on hard surfaces. Given the evidence of prior matchups and current form, it’s difficult to back anything but another tight, drawn-out affair.
