Clara Tauson vs Oleksandra Oliynykova prediction
Clara Tauson will feature for the first time on clay this season in Rome.
The Dane has not played since Miami and could find it a tricky return against Oleksandra Oliynykova.
The Ukrainian world number 68 cruised to a 6-1 6-3 success against Petra Marcinko and has a strong record on the dirt at the lower tier, picking up a number of titles.
That said, Tauson is strong on this surface and although there may be some early cobwebs to blow away, the world number 18 should still find a way through.
