The quarterfinals are set at the WTA 1000 tournament in Beijing, and fans can expect fascinating action in all four matches. Defending champion Coco Gauff is the highest seed remaining after Iga Swiatek’s elimination and is featured in this article. As always, we at LWOT will offer predictions for every match on the slate. But who will advance to the semifinals?<\/p>\n
Head-to-Head<\/strong>: Noskova 1-0 Kartal<\/p>\n Linda Noksova is in her second WTA 1000 quarterfinal of the season as she defeated Anastasia Potapova in the fourth round. Noskova struggled to close out the match and had to save four break points in her last game. She will need to be more clinical against the in-form Sonay Kartal, who got her first top 10 win against Mirra Andreeva. She played a great match and was more efficient than her opponent towards the end. Noskova will find it tough against a grinder like Kartal on these slow courts.<\/p>\n Prediction: Kartal in 3<\/em><\/p>\n Head-to-Head<\/strong>: Anisimova 1-0 Paolini<\/p>\n #3 seed Amanda Anisimova made a great comeback against Karolina Muchova after losing the first set. She composed herself and played clutch tennis from the second set onwards. This shows her improvement and confidence in her game. However, she will need to start better against Jamine Paolini, who will look to frustrate the American with her grittiness. Paolini is playing well and will like her chances in these conditions. I am expecting a battle, but the higher seed should advance.<\/p>\n Prediction: Anisimova in 3<\/em><\/p>\nAmanda Anisimova vs Jasmine Paolini<\/h4>\n
