Azarenka Hoping to Reverse Ostrava Result
Following her fourth round appearance at the US Open, Azarenka returned to competitive tennis after nearly a month-long break and featured in the Ostrava Open at the start of this month.
Unfortunately for Azarenka, her campaign there lasted just one match as she fell to a three-set defeat to Ekaterina Alexandrova.
Azarenka’s season has been a reasonable one without being too flashy too. In the 12 tournaments she’s played all year, that loss to Alexandrova was only her second one in the first round, but at the same time, there haven’t been too many competitions in which she has won three matches in a row.
In fact, that number also stands at two – at the Australian Open and the US Open.
And now she starts things off against a solid player albeit one against whom she has had a good time.

Zhang on a Three-Match Losing Streak
Things looked to be going her way when Zhang, like Azarenka, made the fourth round and then followed it up with another semifinal in the Japan Open.
Since then, however, Zhang has struggled to get going with four losses from five matches punctuating her season.
A semifinal exit at the Japan Open at hands of Ludmilla Samsonova wasn’t a big bookmaker’s surprise but losses to Donna Vekic and Robin Montgomery might not have been on Zhang’s bucket-list.
And she now starts things off against a player who will hold the edge too. Can the Chinese player shrug her recent form issues aside?
Azarenka v Zhang Prediction and Tip
Azarenka is 2/5 to win this and we will back her to do that, just that those are rather short odds for her win. Expecting Zhang to win a set here though.
Tip: Azarenka to win in three sets: 3/1 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
