Safarova - Kuznecova
Lucie is back after injury - she could find her rhythm in 1set against Sugiama but in the end her service started to work and also baseline play was much better (not so many unforced errors) and Japanese couldn't to anything.. If Safarova can keep this level of play against Kuznecova - she can be dangerous for nr 3 seed - because Russian isn't in the top form now - she lost with Bammer in Doha and here it will be her 1st match (1st round bye) so she need a lot of concentration to go good into the match in the other way Safarova can take a early lead and everything can happen.
