HRADECKA TO BEAT ARRUABARRENA @ 21-10
Hradecka leads he head to head 3-0. Both players are not ripping up any trees with their form but Hradecka has the more powerful game although she is more inconsistent I expect her more powerful game to come through here.

RODIONOVA TO BEAT ZVONAREVA @ 11-10
Rodionova is not particularly good on hard courts but Bepa is returning from her career threatening injury and has been playing on the ITF circuit for the last few weeks and looked very rusty and I expect her to struggle back on the main tour in her protected events.
PUIG TO BEAT MERTENS @ EVENS
Puig's all out attacking game is virtually unplayable when she is on form. She hits the ball ferociously hard and flat. Mertens is a consistent steady player who has improved this season but she might struggle to contain Puig's power here.

Pliskova leads the head to head 6-1. The total over games has been covered in four of their seven meetings and with both players, in terrific form I can see this one going to three sets or at least two close sets with a tie break. The last time they met both sets were decided by tie-breaks and something similar could take place today.
