Jessica Pegula vs Leylah Annie Fernandez Prediction & Picks - WTA Cincinnati Open
by Lou Aguila | in Tennis Picks
Jessica Pegula of the United States will try to barge into her second straight semifinal appearance on Saturday when she battles it out with Leylah Fernandez of Canada in the quarterfinal of the women’s singles tournament at the 2024 Cincinnati Open. Pegula clobbered Taylor Townsend 6-2 6-3 to enter the quarterfinal stage of the 2024 Cincinnati Open. Pegula scored 29 points on her first serves and converted four out of five breakpoint opportunities to put away Townsend. The Baton Raton, Native just won the National Bank Open in Toronto a week ago and now she’s aiming to pair it with another WTA 1000 title in Cincinnati. Fernandez is fresh off an impressive win over rising star Diana Shnaider in the third round. The Canadian sensation won 80 per cent of her first serves and broke Shnaider four times in the match. Fernandez, a former US Open finalist, set sights on her first title since ruling the Hong Kong Open in October 2023.

Our Jessica Pegula vs Leylah Annie Fernandez Prediction
Fernandez will step into her quarterfinal match with Pegula oozing with confidence after toppling several high-profile names like Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan and Shnaider, who many people see as a future Grand Slam contender. Pegula has had a lesser perilous route to the quarterfinals, beating former US Open semifinalist Muchova and journeywoman Townsend. Pegula defeated Fernandez in their first and only encounter to date, pulling off a 7-5 6-4 win in the third round of the Miami Open. Pegula is the favourite in the match, but I see Fernandez maintaining her high-level play in this showdown, grinding out a win over the newly-crowned National Bank Open champ. Our betting prediction for Leylah Fernandez vs. Jessica Pegula: Bet on Fernandez to win, +170, at Caesars Sportsbook.
