Trending
Mboko struggled to overcome the World No. 134, Talia Gibson, in the first round. She lost the first set on a tiebreak, but made a strong comeback to record a 7-6(2), 1-6, 4-6 win. After an impressive quarterfinal run in Osaka, the Canadian youngster is seeded third in the last WTA 250 event of the season.
The 19-year-old has had a breakout season so far, with a 55-14 win-loss record. Mboko clinched the Canadian Open title, beating the likes of Coco Gauff and Naomi Osaka, to break into the top 25 of the WTA singles rankings.
Alexandra Eala, on the other hand, entered the second round after seeing a walkover from the last season's runner-up, Katie Boulter, during the second set of the opening match. Eala is also witnessing a breakout season, having reached the semifinals of the WTA 1000 event in Miami and won her maiden main draw match in Major.
Victoria Mboko vs Alexandra Eala head-to-head
Mboko and Eala are facing each other for the first time, so their head-to-head record remains 0-0.
Victoria Mboko vs Alexandra Eala prediction
After upsetting Clara Tauson in the first round of the US Open in August, Eala has struggled heavily on the Asian swing. She suffered first-round exits in Guangzhou, Osaka, and Wuhan, and is unlikely to upset Mboko in Hong Kong.
Mboko has already claimed six titles on hardcourts, including her maiden WTA 1000 title, this year. She has been in good form on the Asia swing, having reached the quarterfinals of the Japan Open. Eala is expected to put up a good fight, but Mboko is likely to walk away with a three-set win on Thursday.
Pick: Mboko to win in three sets.
