Stojsavljevic vs Sonmez Prediction 5 November 2026
🔊 Mika Stojsavljevic and Zeynep Sonmez meet in the round of 16 on the outdoor hard courts in Hong Kong. They are some way apart in the rankings, but the numbers suggest this could be a competitive match. The surface gives neither player a clear stylistic edge, so current form could prove decisive.
Head-to-Head
📊 Mika Stojsavljevic and Zeynep Sonmez have never met before.
Mika Stojsavljevic Player Overview
Mika Stojsavljevic is a rising British talent who recently won the junior US Open. The senior tour has been a tougher proposition: she is ranked in the 400s, has largely played smaller events and had made little impression before Hong Kong. Her tournament appeared to be over after a heavy qualifying defeat to Tatiana Prozorova. But a withdrawal handed her a reprieve, and Mika learned just an hour before the match that she would take the court as a lucky loser. With nothing to lose, she played freely and swept aside former Grand Slam champion Sofia Kenin. Stojsavljevic flew around the court, hit with fearless power and claimed the first WTA main-draw win of her career.

Match Results: Zeynep Sonmez
Key factors
- Zeynep Sonmez’s matches average more than 22 games in total.
- Sonmez has frequently dropped at least one set in her last 10 matches, increasing the likelihood of a lengthy contest.
Expected scenario
The Briton will come out swinging, looking to finish points in two or three shots. Sonmez, meanwhile, will aim to stay composed, get those balls back and force her younger opponent into taking risks and making mistakes in longer rallies. If she withstands the early onslaught and holds her nerve under pressure, Sonmez’s experience could see her through-but Mika will make her work for it.
⭐ Editor’s prediction
There is a clear gap in the rankings, but Sonmez’s average match length and her tendency to drop sets suggest this could be a long contest. With no previous head-to-head meetings to go on, Mika Stojsavljevic could still pick up enough games to keep it close. The pick is over 18.5 total games.
