As Gracheva's second serve proficiency and breakpoint saving ability provide reliable strength, these factors may grant her a competitive advantage. However, Brengle's effectiveness in return games and superior breakpoint conversion might neutralize these strengths.

Consideration of surface advantage leans towards Brengle due to the hard court, but Gracheva's recent general performance surpasses Brengle's, including against more challenging opponents.

While Brengle has the edge from their previous hard court encounter, Gracheva's steadier form and ability to handle high-pressure situations better may sway the match in her favor.

Given these analyses, Gracheva appears the more likely victor in their upcoming match.
