Jelena Ostapenko vs Alexandra Eala prediction
Former champion Jelena Ostapenko will hope for a case of third time lucky against Alexandra Eala.
The 2024 winner has lost both of her previous encounters with the Filipina, who set up their first tussle on clay courtesy of a 6-4 6-3 triumph over Austria’s Julia Grabher.
World number 46, Eala is yet to make her mark on the dirt while Ostapenko has form here and is obviously a former French Open champion too.
Eala could look to get into Jelena’s mind and use that head-to-head to her advantage, but given her lack of a back catalogue on this surface, there’s a stronger pull to back the Latvian fourth seed to snare that maiden win at Alexandra's expense.
