THE PREDICTION
World number 213 Ekaterina Makarova overcame Kateryna Baindl in three sets on Monday to back-up a strong qualifying campaign at Cluj-Napoca. The 27-year-old faces a rare opportunity to make a quarter-final at tour level but former world number 56 Patricia Tig remains the favourite on experience and with home advantage firmly behind her. The 29-year-old needed three sets to oust Martha Matoula on Monday and she is far from her best, currently ranked just inside the top 500, but taking the Romanian to earn at least a set feels like the most sensible way to avoid a full result from this tricky clash. Consider leaving this match alone altogether or risk a three-setter with both of their openers seeing a decider.
