WTA Den Bosch Day 4 Predictions Including Bianca Andreescu vs Lulu Sun

The last of the second-round action at the Libéma Open features several intriguing matchups as players look to find their footing on grass. Bianca Andreescu continues her comeback against Lulu Sun, Kimberly Birrell faces Yue Yuan in a battle of contrasting form, and local hope Suzan Lamens takes on the experienced Ann Li. Who do you back to progress to the next round?

WTA Den Bosch Day 4 Predictions

Kimberly Birrell vs Yuan Yue

Head-to-Head: Birrell 1–0 Yue

Birrell enters this match with slightly better recent form, including a gritty three-set win over Xinyu Wang in the first round here, while Yuan has struggled lately with just 2 wins in her last 10 main draw matches. Their only previous meeting saw Birrell edge Yuan in two tight tiebreaks (7-6 7-6) at Austin earlier this year. On grass, Birrell’s flat hitting and fighting spirit could give her an edge over Yuan, who’s less proven on the surface . Expect a close battle, but Birrell’s superior clutch play and grass adaptability might see her through.

Prediction: Birrell in 2

Suzan Lamens vs Ann Li

Head-to-Head: Li 1–0 Lamens

Ann Li comes into this matchup with the advantage of experience and a solid baseline game that suits grass well, as seen in her run to the Nottingham semifinals back in 2021. Suzan Lamens, a Dutch wildcard, will have home support but has limited success at the WTA level and minimal pedigree on grass. While Lamens fought hard to get past Greet Minnen in the first round, Li’s cleaner technique and ability to take the ball early should give her the upper hand in quicker rallies. If Li maintains her consistency and keeps Lamens on the move, she’s likely to dictate the match.

Prediction: Li in 3

Bianca Andreescu vs Lulu Sun

Head-to-Head: first meeting

Bianca Andreescu continues her comeback with promising form, having shown flashes of her Grand Slam-level ball-striking in recent weeks, including a solid first-round win in ’s-Hertogenbosch. While she’s still finding her rhythm after a long injury layoff, her prior success on grass (including a fourth-round run at Wimbledon in 2023) gives her a slight edge. Lulu Sun, meanwhile, is a dangerous lefty with a powerful serve and has built confidence with consistent ITF-level results, but she lacks significant wins on grass at the WTA level. If Andreescu maintains her composure and sharpness, she should have enough firepower and variety to get through.

Prediction: Andreescu in 2
