Denmark Open 2021 Predictions

Men’s singles

Victor Axelson and Kento Momota
Victor Axelson and Kento Momota

The men’s singles events are all set to be a mouth-watering affair with the big guns clashing for the glory. Top seeds Momota and Denmark Open winner Axelsen seem to be the favorites for the title. Among others, Chou Tien-Chen and ace Malaysian shuttler Lee Zii Jia could produce an upset or two.

First Quarter

The top seed Kento Momota is in the first quarter and will easily make it to the semifinals. He will face his “bunny” Kidambi Srikant in the first round and Remus Gemke in the second-round match. In the quarterfinal, he may face Indian Sameer Verma.

First Quarterfinal Prediction: Sameer Verma Vs Kento Momota

Second Quarter

The third seed Ander Antonson will face a tough opponent Lee Cheuk Yiu in the first round. In this quarter Ng Ka Long Angus is expected to reach the quarterfinals.

Second Quarterfinal Prediction: Ng Ka Long Angus vs Ander Antonson

Third Quarter

Fourth seed Chou Tien Chen is expected to cruise through to the quarters. Three-time World junior champion Kunlavut Vitidsarn is the other shuttler who seem to be the favourite to challenge Chen. With three Indians, Kashyap, Pranoy and Sourabh Verma, in the quarter, there is a possibility of an upset or a two from them.

Third Quarterfinal Prediction: Kunlavut Vitidsarn vs Chou Tien Chen

Fourth Quarter

The two seeded players in the quarter, Jia and Axelson are expected to make it past the Round of 16. Budding Indian shuttler Lakshya Sen seems like the only candidate who might create an upset and topple the seventh seed in the second round.

Fourth Quarterfinal Prediction: Lee Zii Jia vs Victor Axelson

Women’s singles

Ratchanok Intanon and Akane Yamaguchi

The withdrawal of Tokyo 2020 Gold medallist Tzu-Ying has sprung the women’s singles title race wide open at the Super 750 tournament. Denmark Open champion Yamaguchi and Sindhu seem to be front runners for the time being. Se-young could emerge as a dark horse with the door wide ajar for the title.

First Quarterfinal Prediction: Akane Yamaguchi vs Pornpawee Chochuwong

Second Quarterfinal Prediction: An Se-Young vs Gregoria Mariska Tunjung

Third Quarterfinal Prediction: Busanan Ongbamrungphan vs PV Sindhu

Fourth Quarterfinal Prediction: Saina Nehwal vs Ratchanok Intanon
