ARYNA SABALENKA VS MADISON KEYS PREDICTION
Aryna Sabalenka is the clear favourite to win the China Open and she has looked in formidable form in the first couple of rounds so far. The 26-year-old Belarussian has looked incredibly comfortable so far but this is certainly a step up in quality in terms of opponent faced.
Madison Keys has been equally as dominant and has arguably played better players than Sabalenka has so far. She beat Sara Sorribes in the first round and dropped just three games and then impressed once again when she overcame the dangerous Beatriz Haddad Maia 6-3 6-3.
That will give her plenty of confidence coming into this game but she has typically found it difficult when she has faced Sabalenka in the past. Sabalenka has won three of the four previous meetings and it is fair to say that she is playing as well as ever right now. It is hard to see any other outcome than Sabalenka winning this and we expect it to come in straight sets too.
