THE PREDICTION
Former world number one Victoria Azarenka seems to have got her eye in at the Italian Open, where she finished runner-up to Serena Williams in 2013, after conceding just five games to Maria Sakkari on Monday. The 34-year-old has enjoyed one of her better, more consistent starts to a season in recent years but she has rarely troubled the better clay-courters on tour, with an exit to Sara Sorribes Tormo in Madrid last time out more typical of her performances at this time of year.
World number 15 Danielle Collins conceded just three games to the returning Irina-Camelia Begu on Monday to look the reasonable favourite in this clash. The 30-year-old counts two clay titles amidst her four career trophies after a storming run to the Charleston Open summit last month and it took defending champion Aryna Sabalenka to out her in Madrid, snapping an eight-match winning streak on the surface. The pair share a 1-1 head-to-head record but they have not met since 2019 and Azarenka has never faced this insatiable version of the retiring American. Back Collins to win.
TIP: DANIELLE COLLINS TO WIN
