Bouzkova vs Osaka: any chance of sensation?

Marie Bouzkova played her most recent successful tournament in June. In Birmingham Czech player reached the quarter-final on the grass. After that she won only one match in six tournaments. 

A talented Czech player didn't deserve such a long string of defeats. We can't say that she is looking hopeless in every match. She fights until the end, but she is just unfortunate. In the previous week at Chicago Bouzkova was beaten in the first round by Peterson on two tiebreaks (6:7, 6:7).

Naomi Osaka is also not so successful recently. Japanese player will need to defend points for the previous New York tournament, where she won a title. But looking at her recent tournaments, we can't give a positive prediction for Osaka's performance.

After the Roland Garros Osaka played only two tournaments. At the home Olympics in Tokyo she was beaten in the round of 16 by Vondrousova (1:6, 4:6). In Cincinnati she recorded a difficult victory over Gauff (4:6, 6:3, 6:4). But in the next match she was sensationally beaten by Teichmann (6:3, 3:6, 3:6).
