One of Thursday's more eye-catching matches on the male side of the French Open is the one between Flavio Cobolli and Yibing Wu. On European clay courts, we've seen Cobolli take his game to new heights in 2026, with him now ranking as high as 14 in the world, thanks to reaching the final in Munich and the quarter-finals in Madrid. Such efforts point towards him thriving here against a lower-ranked player.
Yibing Wu played really well to defeat Marcos Giron in the first round at Roland Garros, and that effort won't have done his confidence any harm, but this is a much tougher task, and realistically, the Chinese player lacks the profile to really suggest that he can cause an upset here. All in all, Flavio Cobolli looks to have a very strong chance of leaving Yibing Wu behind here, so much so that the Italian looks a great bet to win this second-round match by a clear margin, just as he did at this stage of the tournament a year ago.

Our Flavio Cobolli vs Yibing Wu Prediction
When these two players faced off back in February, it may have taken Flavio Cobolli a little while to get on top, but when he did, he breezed beyond his Chinese competitor, grinding out a first set win before winning the second set 6-1. Given that he's arguably improved since then, the Italian should be capable of delivering a similar performance here.
Quite frankly, after he defeated a lower-ranked opponent in straight sets during the first round, he ought to be less generously priced to win this by a clear margin.
