THE PREDICTION

24-year-old Anna Blinkova moved up to just two places behind her career-high WTA world ranking of 54th this week after finishing runner-up to Elina Svitolina at the Strasbourg Open. The Russian enjoyed a kind draw running up to the final on Saturday but four wins on clay gives her some strong form to cunt on coming into Roland-Garros, where she set her career-best Grand Slam exit in the third round on her debut in 2019. 28-year-old Ysaline Bonaventure will also break her career-high WTA world ranking of 81st with victory here but she has so far struggled to impose herself on a Grand Slam, losing five of her six first round appearances since making her debut in Melbourne in 2019. The Belgian enjoyed some of her best form late last season but she brings a four-match losing streak into this first tout-level encounter with Blinkova, who can be backed to come through the outright winner.
