Fifth seed Qinwen Zheng and 34th seed Amanda Anisimova will face off in the fourth round of the China Open. We have a prediction for this match ready.

Another win for Zheng in this fixture will set up a quarter-final draw with Magda Linette or Mirra Andreeva. Anisimova will be eager not to lose again in this fixture in the space of a month. She fell to Zheng back in August at the US Open.

To set up this second career meeting between them, Anisimova defeated Daria Kasatkina in straight sets. She has now compiled a 20-12 record, having registered 16 of her wins on hard courts.

Anisimova, who was a finalist in Toronto earlier in the year, has moved five places to 38th in the live ranking.

Qinwen Zheng is in terrific form and will be confident of another win in this fixture. The Chinese number one is having a strong year and has gone on to display that on home soil.

She has won both of her matches here in straight sets and has lost a combined seven games in both duels. Five of these games came in the last round against Nadia Podoroska.

The world number seven overcame a first-set loss to Anisimova on her way to the quarter-finals at the US Open. Zheng, a Gold Medalist at the Paris Olympics, won the title in Palermo and also finished as runner-up at the Australian Open.

She has won 39 of the 54 matches she has played this season and registered 21 victories on hard courts.
