Lisa Zaar vs Jessica Bouzas Maneiro prediction
Lisa Zaar has put together a respectable 2026 season, mostly at ITF level. She’s picked up a steady flow of match wins, including a couple of semifinals and several quarterfinal runs across 25Ks and 50Ks. While she hasn’t yet made a breakthrough at WTA level, she’s been reliable against players in her ranking bracket and has shown she can grind through tight matches. Her form this year is solid, if not spectacular, and she will hope for a respectable finish in Rabat.
Jessica Bouzas Maneiro’s season has been a struggle in parts, with a number of early exits, including first-round losses at the Australian Open, Dubai, Miami and Doha. The Spaniard dropped down to compete on the ITF circuit in Parma last week and managed to win three matches in a row on her way to the semi-finals. However, she then lost in three sets to Dayana Yastremska.
This is a match that Bouzas Maneiro will be expected to win, and she does have a bit of momentum on her side after that run in her last event. She also reached the quarter-finals of this tournament last year.
