Iryna Shymanovich vs Maja Chwalinska prediction

Iryna Shymanovich could have the edge when she faces Maja Chwalinska in Romania.

The Belarusian-born world number 90 has decent lower-tier pedigree on clay and has reached two finals on the surface this year, winning one title.

Chwalinska is ranked 10 places below her opponent and also has a fondness for the surface, but her form is more patchy having lost 10 of her last 15 matches.

This is their first meeting so there is nothing to go by in terms of a head-to-head, but we feel Shymanovich's greater consistency over the past 12 weeks makes her most likely to come out on top.
