Naomi Osaka continues with her quest for yet another title in Beijing and next takes on seventh-seed Karolina Muchova. This will mark the third meeting between them this season, and our prediction backs Muchova for a third straight win over Osaka.
In their first encounter this season, Muchova won via a retirement in the final in Bad Homburg. To wipe out any doubts from that meeting, she won in straight sets two weeks later in the Wimbledon quarter-final. The world No. 8 would proceed to lift the SW19 title.
Muchova is the favourite to win again and strengthen her chances for a first China Open title. A finalist in Beijing two years ago, the Czech star defeated Liudmila Samsonova in the last round.
Osaka, the 12th seed, will be eager to avoid a third straight loss in this fixture. As a former Beijing champion, she has extra motivation to bank on. The former world number one, who is having one of her best seasons in years, won the 2019 China Open.
In her most recent appearance, last year, she lost in the second round. Osaka is coming off a win against Sara Bejlek in straight sets, which took her to 30 victories in 41 outings this term.
The world No.17, is an exceptional hardcourt player. She has registered all three of her wins against Muchova on such surfaces.
