Two former Roland Garros finalists meet in round two of the clay court Italian Open. Sofia Kenin faces Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova for a place in the last 32. The winner will take on either top seed Aryna Sabalenka or unseeded Anastasia Potapova. Here's our match prediction.
Sofia Kenin is the world number 31 so could well be seeded at the upcoming French Open. The American is 18th in the WTA Live Race and has won 18 of her 28 matches played this year. That includes reaching the final of the clay court Charleston Open. That saw her get wins over Belinda Bencic, Daria Kasatkina and Amanda Anisimova before losing to Jessica Pegula in the final.
It was in 2020 that Kenin was 2020 the runner-up at Roland Garros, a year before Pavlyuchenkova did the same.
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova is up to 47th in the live rankings after beating Katie Boulter in round one in what is only her second clay court tournament of 2025. That avoided a fifth first round exit of the year.
Pavlyuchenkova leads Kenin 2-1 in previous matches including a win this year. This is their first match on clay and two of the previous matches were played six years ago.
We tip Kenin to win this match.
