Emma Raducanu of Great Britain kickstarts her campaign at the 2025 Ningbo Open on Monday against Lin Zhu of China.
Raducanu is the favorite here at -650, but can she blow out Zhu for a more lucrative payout on the spreadline?
Current Form:
Raducanu seeks to recover from a humiliating 1-6, 1-4 loss to Ann Li in the first round of the 2025 Wuhan Open. Raducanu was picked apart by Li in this match as the Brit could only win 16 points behind the first serves and committed five double faults. She is 17-13 on the hard court and 28-21 overall in 2025.
Ranked 219th in the world, Zhu lost her last two matches against Mirra Andreeva 5-7, 6-7 in Beijing and Maya Joint 2-6, 2-6 in Wuhan. Zhu is 17-12 on the hard court and 19-12 overall this year. The Chinese’s biggest win this year was a 1-6, 6-2, 4-6 victory over Ekaterina Alexandrova in the second round of the 2025 Canadian Open in July.

Our Emma Raducanu vs Lin Zhu Prediction
Raducanu is eager to bounce back from her setback in Wuhan. The Brit is having a promising year on the tour, playing healthy for the first time in years and going deep in several tournaments. Zhu collected 13 of her 19 wins this year from Challenger Level tournaments, which is a tier below the WTA Tour circuit. Zhu is 3-8 against the WTA top 100 and 1-4 against the WTA top 50 this year.
Fearless Forecast: Emma Raducanu cruises through to a 6-3, 6-2 win over Lin Zhu. I feel Raducanu will play a lot better against Zhu, who has a 34 percent win rate aganst the WTA top 50.
