Ann Li and Jil Teichmann, both unseeded, will face off in the quarter-finals in Merida. The two are scheduled to meet on Friday and here’s our preview and prediction. Li won both of her matches this week in straight sets. She defeated eighth seed Nuria Diaz in the first round then Antonia Ruzic to advance to this round. The American, who has contested three finals in the ITF and Challenger circuits this season, has now won 40 of 65 fixtures. A one-time tour champion, Li has moved up eight places to 103rd in the live ranking. Winning here will see her advance to her first tour semi-final in two years.

Jil Teichmann earned a walkover in the second round against Ajla Tomljanovic, thus had more time to prepare for this duel. Victory here will see her win multiple main draw matches at a tour event for the first time this season. Teichmann, who defeated Anastasia Tikhonova in the first round in straight sets, has compiled a 38-19 record. The two-time tour champion has won one challenger title and finished as runner-up once in the ITF circuit. She is currently placed 137th in the live ranking. The winner of this match will next play Nina Stojanovic, Marina Stakusic, Varvara Lepchenko or Polina Kudermetova.
