Magdalena Frech has had a flying start in Cincinnati and will be looking to extend the same against Elena Rybakina in the third round. The two are meeting for the fourth time in their careers, and Frech will be targeting a first-ever victory. With three straight wins in this fixture, our prediction will definitely back Rybakina.
Frech will be confident of halting Rybakina’s dominance after sailing to the third round for only the second time on tour this season. She outlasted Antonia Ruzic in the first round before seeing off 26th seed Jelena Ostapenko, all in straight sets.
This is her fourth Cincinnati appearance and first time reaching the third round. The Pole is on a 17-20 record for the season and is 37th in the live ranking.
Second seed Rybakina saw off the challenge of Taylor Townsend to get to this stage. After a first round bye, she strolled past the American in straight sets in a match that lasted one hour and 18 minutes.
Rybakina is on a much more dominant season, coming here on a 40-12 record, and has played close to two hours less than Frech.
A four-time finalist this year, the 27-year-old will be the clear favorite here, going for a third title after her massive win at the Australian Open and Stuttgart. The Kazakh hasn’t ever been past the quarter-finals here.
