Naomi Osaka of Japan is listed at -118 to cover -3.5 games spread line ahead of her second-round duel with China Open runner-up Linda Noskova at the 2025 Wuhan Open on Wednesday.
Current Form:
Osaka survived a dogfight with Leylah Annie Fernandez of Canada in her opening match in Wuhan. The four-time Grand Slam champion banked on her experience and elite shot-making to rally from a set down, hacking out 4-6, 7-5, 6-3 win over the Canadian. Osaka, who suffered a shocking loss to world’s No.114 Aliaksandra Sasnovich 6-1, 4-6, 2-6 in Beijing, has gone 6-2 in her last 8 matches.
Noskova, the 2025 China Open champion, kept her winning form going after grinding out a tough three-set win over Yuliia Putintseva of Kazakhstan 6-4, 4-6, 7-6. Noskova, who played her seventh match in 11 games, overcame fatigue and a furious fightback from Putintseva to stay alive in this WTA 1000 event. Noskova is 6-1 in her last 7 matches and 35-23 in 2025.

Our Naomi Osaka vs Linda Noskova Prediction
Linda Noskova will have to squeeze out anything left in her tank to beat Naomi Osaka in this electric second-round clash. Noskova is set to play her 8th match in 12 days and second match on back-to-back days. Osaka will have the fresher legs, playing only her third match in the Asian Swing of the WTA tour. Osaka also boasts a 7-5 record against the WTA top 20 this year and an 8-3 slate in second-round matches.
Fearless Forecast: Naomi Osaka bests Linda Noskova 6-4, 6-4 to cover -3.5 games. Noskova might have a strong chance to match up well with Osaka, but fatigue will be a big factor in this matchup.
