Cristian and Jessica Bouzas Maneiro open the curtains of the RO16 in the Japan Women's Open. There's little to separate these two players, so punters will surely be scratching their heads with this one. But we've already found the sharp pick, and you can check it out in this Jaqueline Cristian vs Jessica Bouzas Maneiro match prediction below.

We're banking on Maneiro to do what she has done in her only H2H against Cristian, and that's to win. Interestingly, that meeting was just last month, and Maneiro not only won but she was absolutely dominant, beating Cristian 6-4, 6-0 in straight sets. With that kind of thrashing, she should hold the psychological advantage, which should at least be enough to see another victory.

Form-wise, Maneiro also holds a slight edge, having won four of her last six singles. In sharp contrast, Cristian has lost four of her last six singles and seven of her last 11. The surface is also of importance, as Maneiro is 11-6 in her last 17 games on hardcourt, while 6-7 in her last 13 games.

Both players impressed in their RO32 outing, with Cristian beating Elisabetta Cocciaretto 2-0 and Maneiro beating Katie Volynets in the same manner.
