Simona Halep – Naomi Osaka (PREDICTION 22.01.2018)

Simona Halep
Simona, aged 26, currently occupies the first place in the WTA circuit of the simple test.
With the victories in Abu Dhabi, Shenzen in both the singles and the doubles, Simona looks like he is in a very good shape at this time, being very well prepared and assembled to get his best result in this competition.
The Australian Open was a solid one for Simona, but she was extremely demanding and was forced to stay on the field in the previous round against Lauren Davis for 3 hours and 45 minutes.
This has tired her from a psychic point of view, but from a moral point of view, she has had a lot to gain.

Naomi Osaka
The 20-year-old Japan player now occupies the 72th place in the WTA circuit of the simple test.
Although at a rather young age, the Japanese player, with a totally different physical constitution than his compatriots, has already formed an important name in the circuit, being one of the top ranked candidates in the years to come.
In this edition of the Australian Open, she had no problems in any match, winning all three matches in a minimum of sets, very clear, against Kristina Kucova, Elena Vesnina and Australian Ashleigh Barty.

Direct meetings
The Australian Open tournament match will be the 3rd straight encounter between the two players, the two matches played so far being won by Simona, both with 2-1 in sets.
