McCartney Kessler vs Yuliia Starodubtseva Prediction & Picks - Abu Dhabi Open

 by Bradley Gibbs | in Tennis Picks

Just before this week's WTA events conclude, it's time for qualification for next week's event in Abu Dhabi. On Saturday, early in the morning if you're on US shores, McCartney Kessler and Yulia Starodubtseva go head-to-head. Given that she's facing a player ranked outside of the top 100, this looks like a nice opportunity for the US player, who is ranked 52nd, to progress in simple fashion, especially as her Ukrainian opponent arrives in horrific form.

Our McCartney Kessler vs Yuliia Starodubtseva Prediction

Let's be honest, this really does look like a huge opportunty for McCartney Kessler to pick up a straightforward win. The US player has been in good form of late, while she made light work of beating Yulia Starodubtseva, winning in straight sets, when the pair met in Australia just a few weeks ago. Throw in the fact that the Ukrainian is low on confidence having lost each of her last seven, losing five of those without winning a set, and odds of +105 start to look a little generous. Our McCartney Kessler vs Yulia Starodubtseva Prediction: McCartney Kessler to Win 2-0.
