The WTA event in the Romanian destination of Cluj, otherwise known as the Transylvania Open, continues on Friday, when there's an interesting quarter-final match between Anastasia Potapova and Ella Seidel. Having thrived during the early rounds, the German will be looking to pick up another impressive win, though getting the better of a player like Potapova will be very tricky indeed. For my money, the Russian is worth supporting to get this done without needing a third set.

Our Anastasia Potapova vs Ella Seidel Prediction

Sure, Ella Seidel played really well to beat Cristian in the first round, while she continued to show a level of form that you'd expect from a higher-ranked player when beating Blinkova after that. However, we shouldn't overestimate those successes. This is a step up for the German, so I really wouldn't be surprised if she struggles here. After all, Potapova has a very good recent record in matches of this nature, frequently winning in straight sets, so I'd argue that she should be priced a bit shorter to come out on top without dropping a set.
