Zeynep Sonmez will face Jasmine Paolini for the first time, eyeing to at least cover the spread at +4.5 games.
Momentum: Zeynep Sonmez qualified for the WTA 500 Stuttgart after picking up two wins in the qualifying stage. Sonmez took down Victoria Pohle 6-3, 6-4 and Anna-Lena Friedsam 6-4, 6-0. Jasmine Paolini will be kicking off her clay-court campaign in Stuttgart, where she looks to turn things around after a wobbly start to her season.
Matchup: Sonmez will get a shot at a top-10 player in Paolini for the first time. Paolini boasts a 64 percent win rate on clay, while Sonmez carries a decent 59 percent win rate on this surface.
Hot on the Board: Sonmez enters the match as a +240 underdog and -110 to cover +4.5 games. Paolini is the clear-cut favorite at -340 and a solid -130 if she beats the -4.5-game handicap. The total is over/under 20.5 games

Our Zeynep Sonmez vs Jasmine Paolini Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Jasmine Paolini staves off Zeynep Sonmez 6-4, 6-4
The clay-court season presents a golden opportunity for Paolini to re-establish herself as a legit top-10 player after enduring a subpar three-month campaign. Her first assignment in Stuttgart won’t be easy, though, as she’ll be taking on Turkish rising star Zeynep Sonmez, who can also deliver high-quality tennis.
Sharp Play: Take Zeynep Sonmez to cover +4.5 games. She might not win this match, but Sonmez can surely offer Paolini a worthy challenge in their first encounter. Winning only 59 percent of her first serves and averaging two aces per match, Paolini’s playing style doesn’t offer the same problem that heavy hitters usually present to Sonmez. I feel the Turk can hold most of her serves and get a break or two against Paolini in this match, which should be enough to at least cover the spread.
Our betting prediction for Zeynep Sonmez vs. Jasmine Paolini: Zeynep Sonmez +4.5 Games
