Coco Gauff of the United States will lock horns with Zheng Qinwen of China in the semifinal round of the 2025 Italian Open on Thursday.
For the second straight tournament, Gauff eliminated teen sensation Mirra Andreeva of Russia 6-4 7-6(5) to advance into the final four of the Italian Open. Once again, Gauff overpowered Andreeva, winning 31 points off the 41 first serves that connected and converting 4 of 7 breakpoint chances. Gauff improves her 2025 clay-court record to 10-2 or 83 percent win rate.
Zheng pulled off a shocker on Wednesday, beating world’s No.1 and heavy favorite Aryna Sabalenka 6-4 6-3. It marked Zheng’s first win over Sabalenka in 7 matches. The Chinese’s service game was on point in the match, holding all her serves and winning 82 percent of her first serves. Zheng is now 6-2 on clay this year.

Our Qinwen Zheng vs Coco Gauff Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Coco Gauff beats Zheng Qinwen for the third time
Reasons to bet on Coco Gauff to win: Gauff has momentum on his side, winning 10 of her last 11 matches on clay. After reaching the final of the 2025 Madrid Open, Gauff joined the tournament in Rome, determined to win her first title of the year. The American has beaten Zheng in their first two matches, including a 7-6(4) 6-1 win in the quarterfinal of last year’s Italian Open.
Reasons NOT to bet on Zheng Qinwen: Zheng is still winless against Gauff after two matches. Moreover, Zheng need to connect her first serves at a much higher rate than her first serve percentage in the tournament at 53% because Gauff is potent when attacking her opponent’s second serve. With less than 24 hours to prepare for her match with Gauff, the question now is whether Zheng will have enough time to recover from a gruelling match with Sabalenka.
Our betting prediction for Zheng Qinwen vs. Coco Gauff: Coco Gauff will win.
