THE PREDICTION

World number 12 Veronika Kudermetova overcame in-form Anastasia Potapova in three sets to back-up a solid opener over Nuria Parrizas-Diaz, remarkably beating exactly the same to players in the first two rounds of her run to the semi-finals of the Madrid Open two weeks ago. The 26-year-old stunned Jessica Pegula to make the semi-finals before a hammering by Iga Swiatek but that suggests she will need the same level of opponent to oust her from Rome in this form. World number 38 Marie Bouzkova will be feeling a lot more confident than she has seemed so far this season after an excellent comeback over Coco Gauff on Sunday. Kudermetova leads their head-to-head record at tour-level 2-0 after beating the Czech to lift the Guadalajara Open title in 2019 and winning again at this stage of Indian Wells last season. Three sets seem very likely given Kudermetova’s recent results but back the Russian to earn at least one here as the likelier of two capable victors.
