Our Mary Stoiana vs Moyuka Uchijima Prediction
Key Stats: Mary Stoiana has not dropped a set so far in Osaka. Despite already conceding 14 service breaks in this tournament, Stoiana has converted 21 of 39 break points across 3 matches. Stoiana is 11-2 in second-round matches in 2026.
What to Expect: Stoiana gets a close win over Uchijima. Stoiana has the tools to neutralize Uchijima’s first serves, including a backhand slice that keeps the ball low and skirts out of the hitting zone. Uchijima, who heavily relies on her serve to set up her points, faced 11 break points in her opening match. Uchijima cannot afford to let Stoiana generate that many break chances because she can convert most of them with her solid return positioning.
Fearless Forecast: Mary Stoiana wins 7-6, 6-4
