Marketa Vondrousova vs Xinyu Wang prediction
Marketa Vondrousova makes her return to the tour here after being out for a few months with a shoulder injury. Her last event was the Dubai Tennis Championships in the middle of February, where she reached the second-round before a loss to Mirra Andreeva.
The 2019 French Open finalist will want to get off to a winning start on the clay and takes on Xinyu Wang in the first-round of the Italian Open. Wang has only played once on the tour in the past month, losing in at the earliest hurdle to Maria Sakkari in Madrid. The Chinese player had chances to force a deciding set but was largely wasteful when it came to break point opportunities.
Vondrousova may lack match fitness having not played in nearly three months, but Wang isn’t in particularly sparkling form to capitalise on it. We can see this going the distance, with both players possibly cancelling each other out for large spells.
