Alexandra Eala vs Oleksandra Oliynykova prediction

Alexandra Eala notched up her best clay court result of the season in Rome as she won two matches in a row to reach the third-round. However, she would go no further following a defeat to world number two Elena Rybakina. Nevertheless, that was a step in the right direction for the Filipino, who is still developing her game on the surface.

She decided to compete in Strasbourg ahead of Roland Garros and faces Oleksandra Oliynykova. The Ukrainian enters the main draw as a qualifier, winning both of her matches in straight sets. She also progressed to round three of the Italian Open, falling to a straight sets defeat to Linda Noskova. 

Eala has spoken of her physical and mental improvements on clay in comparison to 2025, and she will be motivated to make a deep run ahead of the second Grand Slam of the year. Oliynykova can be a frustrating and unpredictable opponent, but Eala has enough quality to get through.
