THE PREDICTION
World number eight Maria Sakkari avoided a tricky anomaly in returning Barbora Strycova on Friday, ousting the Czech in comfortable straight sets to get her Rome campaign underway. The 27-year-old stands a fair chance at a deep run here after seeing the likes of Jessica Pegula and Aryna Sabalenka knocked out early but, as always, her biggest opponent will be her own confidence in the key moments. Former world number 14 Marketa Vondrousova is one of the most natural clay-courters on tour who conceded just one game to an out-of-sorts Bianca Andreescu on Friday to make a huge statement. The current world number 70 is steadily improving her ranking after a long injury lay-off but she has to be fancied odds-on to come through here as a former Roland-Garros finalist. This is, surprisingly, the first meeting between the two and three sets could be a valuable way to avoid picking an outright winner. Otherwise, back Sakkari to earn at least a set as one not likely to go down without a fight.
