CAMILLA ROSATELLO VS KAMILLA RAKHIMOVA PREDICTION

World number 294 Camilla Rosatello came through qualifying to face top see Yue Yuan on Monday, defying the odds to claim the biggest ranking win of her career in three tight sets. The 28-year-old will be well-backed as the severe underdog in this first encounter with former number 65 Kamilla Rakhimova but she has nothing to lose in one of the biggest matches of her life.

World number 105 Rakhimova played just two games against Taylor Townsend on Sunday before the American was forced to retire and she will have a huge upper-hand having had three days’ rest and just 20 minutes of match time, with Rosatello spending almost seven hours on court this week already. Leave this tough call out of an accumulator but otherwise back Rakhimova to reach the quarter-finals.
