A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Amanda Anisimova goes up against Linda Noskova in the Cincinnati round of 16. Linda Noskova comes in at 8 wins from the last ten. Amanda Anisimova has won 6 of the last 10.
Noskova's 69.3% behind the first serve (against 61.4% for Anisimova) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Noskova fractionally more likely to land the big points.
