Peyton Stearns vs Belinda Bencic prediction
Belinda Bencic has her eyes on a maiden appearance in the round of 16 at the French Open.
The Swiss Miss has surprisingly never gone beyond this stage but has been in fine fettle in 2026 and maintained her flawless start in Paris with a 6-4 6-0 rout of Caty McNally.
Next up, the 11th seed will take on world number 78 Peyton Stearns who has bagged straight set wins over both Sofia Kenin and Daria Snigur.
The American can be a tricky and resilient opponent but has not quite ignited on clay this year and we feel Bencic will have the edge in the key moments.
