THE PREDICTION

33-year-old Irina-Camelia Begu qualified for the Italian Open on a protected ranking after injury saw her end last season early at the US Open. The former number 22 impressed in her first match back, beating Linda Fruhvirtova at this stage of Madrid two weeks ago before challenging eventual semi-finalist Madison Keys in a tight straight-sets defeat, and she reached the semi-finals of an ITF event in Germany last week to bring some solid form into Rome. World number 104 Rebeka Masarova qualified the hard this way this week to bring some momentum of her own into this first encounter but the Spaniard has struggled to bounce back from a defeat in the Bisbal Challenger final this time last month and she has failed to win at tour level since the Australian Open in January. Back Begu to reach the second round.

TIP: IRINA-CAMELIA BEGU TO WIN
