Former China Open champion Naomi Osaka will clash with Sara Bejlek in the third round at the China Open on Sunday. The match will mark the first career meeting between these two, and in our prediction, this encounter might need a deciding set.
Bejlek hasn’t had a very consistent run lately, but she remains one of the surprise packages this season. Playing as a qualifier, she raced to her first tour level title in Abu Dhabi in February.
Though she hasn’t matched that feat, a 5-1 record in the third round should be a confidence boost coming here. She started her Beijing debut with a straight-set win against Maddison Inglis and now targets winning more than once since her semi-final showing in Cincinnati.
Osaka hasn’t managed to win a title this season but was close to one, as she got to the Bad Homburg final. The Japanese has a superb record in the third round, only losing once in her 11 matches at this stage.
She is a former champion here and looks to add to her 2019 title. In three sets, she defeated Maria Timofeeva in the last round. That left one concern that has been with her in the past few matches now.
The former world No. 1 has dropped a set or more in five of her last six outings, and each of her last three wins was decided in three sets.

Our Sara Bejlek vs Naomi Osaka Prediction
Naomi Osaka hasn’t won a title this season, but that’s not to mean she isn’t playing well. She’s had a few rough edges since returning from her maternity break, but overall, her performance hasn’t been bad. The Japanese athlete comes into this match as the favourite, though she has been dropping sets regularly.
The same could happen here, as Bejlek is equally doing well. Bejlek has beaten four top 20 players since February, and Osaka has to be cautious. Still, our prediction for Sara Bejlek v Naomi Osaka is for the exact score: 1-2.
