Naomi Osaka inches closer to the Japan Women’s Open at home, but must first take care of her Jaqueline Cristian challenge in the quarterfinal. With little value on the match winner bet alone, we're going for a sharp combo. See our best pick in the Naomi Osaka vs Jaqueline Cristian match prediction below.

Osaka is our winner here, but there's another important part of our prediction here, and that's for there to be over 7.5 1st set total games. For one, Naomi Osaka has won 14 of her last singles matches compared to Cristian, who has lost seven of her last 12.

But what's more interesting is how consistent the first set of their most recent matches hit 8+ games. Three of Osaka’s last four games have seen over 7.5 1st set games, and the same goes for 12 of her last 15. Even more glaring is the fact that ten of Cristian’s last 11 singles saw over 7.5 1st set games.

Osaka’s last matchup, her RO16 win against Suzan Lamens, featured a 7-6 first set. Meanwhile, the first set between Cristian and Jessica Bouzas Maneiro was 6-0, but that's been an outlier in her recent games.
