Analyzing the key metrics and previous encounters, Anderson's marginally superior performance on her second serve might hold an advantage, though Liu's tenacity in breakpoint conversions should not be underestimated.

Significantly, Anderson's prior win in their head-to-head duel and her proven ability to edge through deciding sets present her as a formidable competitor.
