THE PREDICTION
World number 179 Lucrezia Stefanini beat fellow wildcard Vittoria Paganetti in straight sets on Tuesday but this looks far too steep of a challenge against world number 29 Linda Noskova. 19-year-old Noskova brings a two-match losing streak on clay into Rome but she did upset Jelena Ostapenko in straight sets in Stuttgart to prove herself capable on this surface and she was unfortunate to draw world number one Iga Swiatek twice across the Sunshine Double, losing in both third rounds as the Pole avenged her stunning defeat to the Czech at the Australian Open in January. Noskova would much prefer to be back on a hardcourt as she enjoys a steady upwards trajectory on tour but Stefanini should struggle to match her here despite home advantage. Take Noskova to win in straight sets.
TIP: LINDA NOSKOVA TO WIN 2-0
