Zhang and Brengle have never faced off in a competitive match before this.

Shuai Coming off Fourth Round at Australian Open
She had gone into the Australian Open ranked 22nd in the world but Zhang has fallen a spot coming into this tournament in Lyon. And this is despite having made the fourth round at the season’s first major after having crashed out of the same competition in the third round last season.
Still, Zhang would be mighty proud of her effort at the Australian Open after having made a poor start to the year otherwise.
The Chinese player had lost her opener at the Adelaide International and then failed to qualify for the Adelaide International 2. Following on from this showing, she could well have struggled at the Australian Open, especially having been drawn to play Petra Martic in the second round.
Shuai came through 6-3, 6-3 against Martic and then defeated Katie Volynets in the third before Karolina Pliskova got the better of her.
Can she now start things off here strongly and try to break into the top 20 for the first time ever in her career with a strong run in this tournament?

Brengle 0-3 in 2023
Brengle had a strong season in 2022 on the ITF circuit, with the American winning three titles at that level. This year, however, as she tried to switch up to the WTA tour, things haven’t quite been up to the scratch.
Early days in the year alright, but for Brengle to have played and lost all three of her first round matches have been slightly surprising.
It started with an opening defeat at the Auckland Open against Zhu Lin before Bernarda Pera got the better of her in Hobart. And then at the Australian Open, playing against Claire Liu, Brengle fell 6-3, 6-4 in the first round.
Brengle will now be faced with a world number 22 in her opener here, which could make things even more challenging for her. A fighting performance is what she would hope she can put up.
Shuai v Brengle Prediction and Tip
Shuai will be a huge favourite here, starting out at 2/5 odds to win this. Expecting a straight-set win for the Chinese player, with Brengle expected to put up a fight in one of the sets.
