It's now time to fight for a place in the last four at the WTA event in Bogota, Colombia, where one of the home contingent remains in contention. Most people, including me, would have expected Camila Osorio to be the Colombian to go the furthest, but the three-time winner of this event was surprisingly knocked out on Thursday, leaving Colombian hopes in the hands of Emiliana Arango. On Friday evening, the last remaining Colombian in the tournament will take on Varvara Lepchenko.
Lepchenko has been playing well in recent weeks, but she's not exactly won her first two matches with ease at this tournament, looking a little less comfortable with the conditions than Arango, who is really thriving back on home soil. This should not be ignored. Against a lower-ranked player, Arango should get the job done, and she's worth betting on to do just that.

Our Emiliana Arango vs Varvara Lepchenko Prediction
Having preserved her energy more than her opponent during the previous round, Emiliana Arango, who is enjoying playing on home soil this week, now has a big chance to reach the semi-finals of a WTA tournament for the first time since September 2025. She's up against a lower-ranked player, who hasn't exactly made light work of getting this far, not yet winning in straight sets.
To be honest, based on what both players achieved during the last round, Arango looks a more likely winner of this than the early odds suggest. I'd have her down at -225, so -189 is worth taking.
