Coco Gauff of the United States will go head-to-head with Belinda Bencic of Switzerland for the third time this year in Monday's fourth round of the 2025 Mutua Madrid Open.

Gauff recovered from a slow start to demolish compatriot Ann Li in the third round of the 2025 Madrid Open. After scoring a come-from-behind win over Dayana Yastremska of Ukraine 0-6 6-2 7-5, the world’s No.4 trailed 0-2 after her first service in the match resulted in a service break. However, Gauff remained composed and began to play her game, pummeling Li in straight sets 6-2 6-3.

Bencic also comes off a hard-earned win over Beatriz Haddad Maia of Brazil 6-3 4-6 7-6(2). Bencic, who fended off Clara Tauson 7-5, 7-5 in the previous round, engaged in another grueling duel with Haddad Maia but again showed incredible mental fortitude to score the most crucial points in pressure-packed situations late in the match. With the victory, Bencic improved her clay-court record to 3-1 this year.

Our Belinda Bencic vs Coco Gauff Prediction

Fearless Forecast: Belinda Bencic upsets Coco Gauff in another pulsating battle.

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I feel Bencic will come up with another win over Gauff for the second time this year. Bencic is enjoying a career resurgence this year after playing just 10 games in 2024. The Swiss holds an impressive 21-7 slate on the WTA Tour this year and has already captured a title at the 2025 Abu Dhabi Open. Gauff, 16-6 in the season, is still searching for her first title this year after stumbling out earlier than expected in several big tournaments in 2025. Gauff and Bencic are 2-2 in their head-to-head but this will be the first time they play each other on clay. Gauff opens in Las Vegas as the betting favorite. Still, I like Bencic’s chances in this match because of how she handled pressure in the two previous matches against top-caliber opponents like Tauson and Haddad. The battle-tested Bencic will have the mental edge over Gauff if this match goes the distance. Our betting prediction for Belinda Bencic vs. Coco Gauff: Belinda Bencic will win.
