MOYUKA UCHIJIMA VS ARYNA SABALENKA PREDICTION
22-year-old Moyuka Uchijima has been on an absolute tear on the ITF circuit in recent weeks and she brough that momentum into qualifying before a 6-1 6-1 victory on her Roland-Garros debut. The Japanese will set a new career-high WTA world ranking of 74th after victory over fellow Irene Burillo Escorihuela on Tuesday and she could cause some early trouble for second seed Aryna Sabalenka with nothing to lose in the biggest day of her young career.
World number two Sabalenka is likelier, however, to have far too much power to suffer anything close to an upset. The 26-year-old has finished runner-up to Iga Swiatek at each of the last two Masters events in Madrid and Rome and she conceded just three games to Erika Andreeva on Tuesday to look ready to challenge the Pole this fortnight. Back the Belarussian to win in two.
