Our Aryna Sabalenka vs Ann Li Prediction
Key Stats: Ann Li is 9-7 in second-round matches; Sabalenka is 13-0 in the second round.
What to Expect: Sabalenka covers -5.5 games easily. The former world No.1 will be gunning for a statement in her opening match at Wuhan, where she is a three-time champion. Ann Li has a solid all-around game, but lacks the pace and craftiness to outplay elite-level players. With her world-class return game, Sabalenka can capture double breaks and rip the match apart in the blink of an eye.
Fearless Forecast: Aryna Sabalenka wins 6-3, 6-3
Our betting prediction for Aryna Sabalenka vs. Ann Li: Aryna Sabalenka -5.5 games
