One of the earlier matches taking place at the WTA event in Wuhan on Tuesday sees one of the US contingent get down to business. Katie Volynets, ranked as the world number 88 presently, will do battle against Kimberly Birrell. Having in the final of the WTA event in Seoul just over two weeks ago, the pair know plenty about each other. Can the American take revenge for that defeat?
The early odds tell us that Katie Volynets is indeed likely to get her revenge for falling at the final hurdle thanks to Kimberly Birrell in Seoul, but it's hard to agree with that. As was the case when the pair met a little over a fortnight ago, the Aussie seems to be going under the radar a little too much. At odds of +150, she's worth betting on to upset Volynets for a second time in quick succession.

Our Kimberly Birrell vs Katie Volynets Prediction
Based on what happened when these two recently met, there's no reason to conclude that Kimberly Birrell is any type of underdog here, so she really does look generously priced at odds of +150.
