The in-form Leylah Annie Fernandez will be back in front of what has been a very supportive home crowd on Sunday, when she'll take on Naomi Osaka. If the Canadian can get through this match, she'll definitely start to think about winning a WTA 1000 event for the first time in her career. Based on her encouraging efforts this week, the 23-year-old may just be capable of causing an upset.
Given that she is the superior player according to both the rankings and overall career achievements, it's not surprising to see Naomi Osaka enter this match as the favorite. However, it is a little surprising to see that she's as short as -227 to defeat a very decent player, a player who is playing on home soil. Leylah Annie Fernandez is an improving player, and she's certainly capable of tussling with top players on this surface. She also has the support of the home crowd this week. Factor in that the Canadian has also never lost to Osaka in straight sets and she starts to look quite generously priced indeed.
