Key factors
- In Jie Cui's last five matches, the set total was under 2.5.
- In two head-to-head meetings between the players, both ended in straight sets.
- Both players have a run of 2-0 set wins in their recent matches.
- The players' form and set-win statistics support a straight-sets outcome.
Expected scenario
