After exiting the WTA event in Memphis at the first time of asking, Kimberly Birrell will be hoping to improve her hard-court fortunes on Sunday, when the Aussie begins her Canadian Open campaign with a first-round match against Viktorija Golubic, who also fell at the first hurdle in Memphis. Both players will be playing on a hard court for just the second time since the end of the grass-court season. 

Looking at the early lines here, a bet on 'Over 2.5 Sets' appeals. Odds of +140 look a little generous when we consider that the pair are quite closely matched according to the WTA Rankings, while it's not as if either player has made a habit of winning hard-court matches in straight sets during 2026, so it's far from easy to see either one running away with this match.

Our Kimberly Birrell vs Viktorija Golubic Prediction

Viktorija Golubic went down last time out on a hard court, but she pushed her opponent, forcing a three-set match, and given that this is a match between two players who've not exactly found it easy to win in straight sets on this surface in recent times, a bet on 'Over 2.5 Sets' really does appeal at odds of +140. The Swiss player has certainly made a habit of being involved in there-set matches on all surfaces of late, while the pair are also closely matched on the rankings, so don't be shocked if this swings one way then the other, and eventually reaches a third set. 

Our Kimberly Birrell vs Viktorija Golubic Pick: Over 2.5 Sets.
