Jazmin Ortenzi vs Paula Badosa prediction

Paula Badosa continues to look more and more like her old self after sweeping past Justina Mikulskyte.

The second seed clinched a routine 6-3 6-2 win over the lucky loser and will now meet Jazmin Ortenzi after the Argentine chalked up a 6-3 6-2 victory over qualifier Chloe Paquet.

This is their first encounter but with the Spaniard 90 places above the South American at 70 in the world, you'd expect her superior quality to be key here. 

The former world number two has been looking sharp over a sustained period and should have too much power in these conditions for an opponent who is more at home on clay.
