Zarazúa R. vs Kessler M. Prediction by Liza Hysong

Renata Zarazúa has shown mixed form recently. She won three of her last five matches, including a strong 2-0 victory over Brace and a 2-1 comeback against Stephens. However, she suffered a straight-set loss to Dolehide and a heavy defeat to Eala. Her serve has been inconsistent, with aces ranging from 0 to 2 per match, but she has been effective on second-serve return points, often exceeding 50%. Zarazúa's ability to convert break points has been a key factor in her wins.

McCartney Kessler has been in excellent form, winning three of her last five matches. She dominated Oliynykova and Kalinina in straight sets, and edged out Kasatkina in a tight match. Her only losses came against top players Sabalenka and Keys. Kessler's serve has been reliable, with a high first-serve percentage and strong first-serve points won. She also excels at converting break points, as seen in her matches against Oliynykova and Kalinina.
