Coco Gauff vs Tereza Valentova prediction
Coco Gauff will look to step up her French Open preparations in Rome.
The American reached the last eight in Stuttgart and the round of 16 in Madrid but has yet to find her A-game on clay.
The third seed knows Tereza Valentova could provide a tricky test but did beat the young Czech 6-2 6-4 at Roland-Garros last year.
World number 48 Valentova has found wins on the main tour hard to come by in recent months and Coco will feel she will still have the upper hand in this match-up.
Coco Gauff vs Tereza Valentova tip: Coco Gauff to win 2-0
