Fourth seed Talia Gibson meets the qualifier Sinja Kraus in the second round at the Japan Open. This will be their first career meeting. Kraus has posted seven wins in her last 10 outings and our prediction backs her to win.
Talia Gibson defeated the qualifier Harriet Dart in the first round, winning in straight sets to end a three-match losing run. Gibson has had an inconsistent year, and at present has won seven more matches than the 27 she has lost.
The Australian had a strong start to the Asian swing as she finished as runner-up in Singapore. After winning her last match, Gibson has risen four places to 38th in the live ranking.
Sinja Kraus has moved up to 75th in the live ranking, which is a new career high. The 24-year-old is having a strong week in Osaka, and will fancy her chances of progressing to the quarter-finals.
Starting her debut run in this WTA 250 event in the qualifying rounds, Kraus has won three matches in a row. She defeated Caty McNally in the first round in straight sets after the American had been forced to retire with an injury in the second set.
Kraus, who reached the fourth round in Beijing, has won 52 matches competing in and outside the tour.
