Jasmine Paolini vs Kamilla Rakhimova prediction

Of all the seeded players to have departed the competition in the first round, Jasmine Paolini was not one of them. The Italian avoided the bloodbath to get the better of Anastasija Sevastova after a slow start, winning in three sets. In just one round, fourth seeded Paolini has become the second highest seed remaining in the women’s singles competition following the exits of both Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula.

Kamilla Rakhimova will aim to jump on Paolini the same way that Sevastova did in the first set and try to take advantage of any potential slow start. But the likelihood is that Paolini won’t allow herself on this occasion to be outplayed in the first set and will be ready to come out of the traps quickly this time around.

Realistically, Paolini should dominate the majority of this match and ultimately wind up too strong for Rakhimova. Back the fourth seed to get off to a much better start here and ride that momentum all the way to victory in two.
