Our Elina Svitolina vs Hanyu Guo Prediction
The Difference Maker: Svitolina presents a daunting challenge for Guo, who is enjoying a Cinderella run in Wuhan. Unlike Cirstea and Volynets, Svitolina brings with her top-10 pedigree and consistency on the hard court this year.
What to Expect: Svitolina earns a surgical win over Han Guo. Svitolina brings too many weapons and experience to the table. Unless Guo pulls off another remarkable performance, which is unlikely given that she has already played 184 minutes on the court, Svitolina will run away with a massive victory.
Fearless Forecast: Elina Svitolina wins 6-3, 6-2
Our betting prediction for Elina Svitolina vs. Han Guo: Elina Svitolina -6.5 games
