Jasmine Paolini vs Veronika Kudermetova WTA Ningbo Open 2025 Prediction
Paolini has been striking the ball very well, and her recent form will support her case. The two-time Grand Slam champion has the experience to counter Kudermetova’s attacking game-style, and she did so in Cincinnati two months ago. For the Russian, maintaining a high percentage of first serves will be crucial to prevent Paolini from settling into baseline exchanges. As the match goes on, the Italian will have the advantage due to her physical superiority.
Prediction: Jasmine Paolini in straight sets.
