Qinwen Zheng vs Barbora Krejcikova Prediction 

After losing her opening match to Aryna Sabalenka, Qinwen Zheng has won back-to-back matches against Elena Rybakina and Jasmine Paolini since then.

Her win over Paolini was particularly impressive and she is growing in confidence by the match right now.

She faces Barbora Krejcikova in the semi-finals and the pair have met once before and that came in Zhengzhou last year with Qinwen Zheng winning in three sets.

The Czech 28-year-old needed to beat Coco Gauff on Wednesday afternoon to qualify and she did just that in straight sets 7-5 6-4. She has had a similar pathway as Qinwen Zheng as she lost her first match but has bounced back nicely in winning her next two.

Credit to her for winning the crunch match albeit against Gauff who had already qualified. Gauff did however create 12 break points and only managed to convert one so that will be an area for improvement for Krejcikova.

Qinwen Zheng’s serve is looking good right now and she will back herself to create chances on Krejcikova’s serve. That will likely be her pathway to victory and we favour her to get the win here and make it through to the final.
