Based on the rankings, I believe the order of play will be as follows:

Women's Singles

1st Half


101 Wang Manyu
114 Sun Yingsha

116 Shibata Saki
108 Suh Hyowon

105 Ding Ning
112 He Zhuojia

113 Hirano Miu
103 Liu Shiwen

2nd Half

104 Ito Mima
109 Cheng I-Ching

110 Chen Xingtong
106 Chen Meng

107 Zhu Yuling
111 Sato Hitomi

115 Feng Tianwei
102 Ishikawa Kasumi

My bet is on Liu Shiwen/Wang Manyu (1st Half) vs Chen Meng/Ito Mima(on form) (2nd Half) for finals.

Men's Singles

1st Half

101 Xu Xin
114 Liu Dingshuo

116 Timo Boll
108 Calderano Hugo

105 Harimoto Tomokazu
112 Lee Sangsu

113 Wong Chun Ting
103 Ma Long

2nd Half

104 Liang Jingkun
109 Mizutani Jun

110 Franziska Patrick
106 Jang Woojin

107 Lin Gaoyuan
111 Lim Jonghoon

115 Niwa Koki
102 Fan Zhendong

Probably Ma Long (recovered)/Xu Xin/Timo Boll (1st Half) versus Fan Zhendong/Liang Jingkun (2nd Half) for finals.
