Naomi Osaka, the 15th seed at the Italian Open, will face off with 19th seed Diana Shnaider next. They will battle in the third round to mark their first career match, which our prediction tips to go to three sets.
Osaka needed three sets to get past her second-round opponent. The former world number one, who is also a former Rome quarter-finalist, saw off the challenge of Eva Lys in just over two hours.
She has now improved to an 8-4 record after winning her third match on clay this term. Osaka is in her third successive appearance in the Italian capital and has finished in the fourth round in the last two editions. She is currently in 17th place in the live ranking.
Diana Shnaider is defending 215 points this week after her quarter-final exit in last year’s Rome edition. She made a strong start in her return, defeating Talia Gibson in three sets after fighting from one set down.
Shnaider lost the first set 7-5, but in the next two sets, she allowed her Australian opponent just two more games. A quarter-finalist in Charleston to begin her clay season, the young Russian has won five of eight clay fixtures to improve to a 13-10 record.
Despite winning against Gibson, Shnaider has dropped to 24th in the live ranking.

Our Naomi Osaka vs Diana Shnaider Prediction
Our prediction for Naomi Osaka v Diana Shnaider is for more than 2.5 sets. There is a strong chance that the winner of this first-ever meeting between these two will require a decider to progress. This is because the two players are strong clay performers and also haven’t been the season’s most dominant players.
Both Osaka and Shnaider have been blowing hot and cold and didn’t look particularly impressive in their opening fixtures this week. This match is, therefore, up in the air as the players have almost an equal chance of winning.
