Elina Svitolina vs Noemi Basiletti prediction
Elina Svitolina will be a massive favourite against Italian underdog Noemi Basiletti.
The Ukrainian fell at the first hurdle in Madrid so will be eager for a deep run in Rome and that could spell problems for the world number 427.
Basiletti claimed just her second ever main draw victory with a shock 7-5 6-4 triumph over Ajla Tomljanovic.
The Aussie has had her ups and downs and was far from her best, but Svitolina is a model of consistency and with 2026 being a stellar year so far, she’s likely to make short work of the 20-year-old home hope.
