Jasmine Paolini vs Ons Jabeur prediction
Jasmine Paolini will look to use the energy of the crowd to her benefit when she meets Ons Jabeur in a stand-out third round clash.
The Italian revelled in the support of the home fans as she eased past Lulu Sun 6-4 6-3 to set up a fifth career-showdown with the Tunisian.
Jabeur won their first two meetings, but the sixth seed has come out on top in the last two, including a straight sets win on the Stuttgart clay last year.
Jabeur is always capable of some magical, inspired tennis and she may rise to what will likely be a lively atmosphere, but she has only played one match on clay this year and may not be quite where she wants to be in terms of the adaptation to take down a player who has been flying for the past 18 months.
