Considering recent performance trends, Naomi Osaka has demonstrated superior skill in both second serve performance and second serve return points, which often correlates with match success. In addition, her ability to save breakpoints under pressure gives her an advantage in critical moments.

While Putintseva ranks higher in first serve returns and has a marginal edge in breakpoint conversion, these aspects may not outweigh Osaka's overall strengths and higher recent win rate.

Osaka's better performance in past high-pressure H 2H matches against stronger competition further solidifies her as the favorite.

Given these factors, Naomi Osaka is the likely winner in the upcoming match against Yulia Putintseva.
