Flavio Cobolli vs Zachary Svajda prediction
Flavio Cobolli continues his serene progress at Roland Garros so far as he beat Learner Tien in straight sets to advance to the round-of-16. Cobolli suffered a surprise first-round defeat in Hamburg as the defending champion on the eve of the second major of the year, but he has rediscovered his form and hasn’t dropped a set across his first three matches so far. Cobolli got off to a great start and maintained his level to win 6-2 6-2 6-3.
He now faces Zachary Svajda as he held off a fightback from Francisco Cerundolo to win in five sets. Svajda had just one tour-level victory on clay in 2026 in the lead up to this event, but he notched up a third straight victory after winning 6-3 6-4 3-6 4-6 6-3 in a little over three hours.
Cobolli will be viewed as the clear favourite to advance to the next round, but he can be prone to surprise defeats to lower-ranked players.
