On Thursday, there's more action coming our way from the courts in Beijing, where WTA players are busy fighting it out in humid conditions. During the early hours for those situated in the US, Coco Gauff will be in action. Standing between the world number three and a place in the semi-finals is Eva Lys, who reached the final eight thansk to a three-set win over McCartney Kessler last time out. Prior to that, she got the better of Elena Rybakina, which is not something ignore, but does the German have enough left in the tank to raise her game again? I'm not so sure.
Coco Gauff has a promising recent record in matches of this nature, while she ought to be full of confidence having beaten a couple of higher-ranked players to reach this stage. Expect to see one of the best in the business exert her superiority here.

Our Eva Lys vs Coco Gauff Prediction
Frankly, this is a massive opportunity for Coco Gauff to get it done without needing a third set. In fact, I'd argue that the world number three has an even stronger chance of getting this done in two sets than early odds of -149 suggest. Gauff has dropped a set in each of her last two, but in each of those matches, she was up against top-25 players. That's not the case here.
Moreover, Eva Lys has had to use lots of energy to get through her last couple of matches, and that's not exactly what you want ahead of a match against a player who can easily punish fatigue. Our Eva Lys vs Coco Gauff Pick: Coco Gauff to Win 2-0.
