WTA Tokyo Day 2 Predictions Including Sorana Cirstea vs Maya Joint
Eight first-round matches are scheduled on day two at WTA Tokyo so there should be plenty of entertaining tennis for the fans to enjoy. As ever, we at LWOT will offer predictions for every match on the slate, including Naomi Osaka vs Jasmine Paolini, but which players will advance?
20-year-old Nikola Bartunkova has enjoyed a breakout season and will look to end it on a high note with a good run this week at WTA Tokyo. She lost in the second round of the Wuhan Open, but she will be much fresher and more prepared after a break. Aliaksandra Sasnovich, meanwhile, has found some form recently and played two solid matches to beat Yuliia Starodubtseva and Kamilla Rakhimova to reach the WTA Tokyo main draw. Bartunkova will have to be at her best to avoid an upset against the experienced Belarusian, but she is a good enough player to win this match.
