Context

Bucsa, ranked 40, is the higher-ranked player and has won both previous meetings against Udvardy.
The most recent meeting was on hard court in August, where Bucsa came from a set down to win 6-2 1-6 7-5. That result suggests she can handle Udvardy's game on this surface, though the match was close and Udvardy had a strong second set.
