Marie Bouzkova vs Coco Gauff Prediction

• Decide: Bouzkova +5.5 (+100)

It’s been a breeze thus far for the 21-year-old American, breezing by the primary two rounds in straight units. She’s executed simply wonderful on clay, with back-to-back finals appearances in Rome and Madrid, however arising in need of the title.

Gauff is a heavy favourite in Spherical 3 towards Czechia’s Marie Bouzkova, although she’s but to beat her in her profession.

Bouzkova vs Gauff H2H Outcomes

They haven’t met since 2023, although, when Gauff was nonetheless a teen dropping on clay in three units.

Bouzkova hasn’t misplaced a set but at Roland Garros, knocking off thirtieth seed Anna Kalinskaya to kick off her French Open.

Whereas this has upset vibes, it’s exhausting to lean into these +500 odds when Bouzkova has gotten out of the third spherical simply as soon as in her season. We’ll keep on with this one being shut, although.

Madison Keys vs Sofia Kenin Prediction

• Decide: Over 20.5 video games (-120)

Let’s take a stab at a match that may very well be far nearer than the stats point out.

A dynamite begin to the yr for Madison Keys has been dimmed considerably by the clay season. After successful in Adelaide and following it up along with her first profession Grand Slam on the Aussie Open, she was bounced in Rome in Spherical 3.

The week prior, she was dumped by Iga Swiatek in a 3-setter within the quarterfinals at Madrid.

Russian Sofia Kenin may very well be a harmful matchup, although she’s additionally been knocked out by the third Spherical at each Rome and Madrid.

That being stated, Kenin she does have a finals run from Charleston in April, in addition to a 3-1 all-time benefit in head-to-head play, however these two haven’t linked since 2022.

The one 3-setter went to Keys again in 2019, however the two have topped the 20.5 sport line in each match, and we’ll decide it once more for Saturday.

Daria Kasatkina vs Paula Badosa

• Decide: Underneath 21.5 video games (-120)

This match might present a springboard to what’s been lackluster first a part of the season for each gamers.

Badosa’s greatest end on the yr was a semifinal run on the Aussie Open, however that’s the outlier, because the Spaniard has gotten previous the third Spherical only one different time.

It’s been a battle at Roland Garros too, needing to go the space in each matches already, notably knocking off Naomi Osaka in Spherical 1.

There have been only a few shiny spots for Kasatkina, who’s simply 11-12 in singles play on the yr.

Nevertheless, this can be a winnable one to get to the 4th Spherical, which she reached on the Aussie Open too. These two have break up six profession matches, with a win every on clay, however they haven’t met since October of 2024.

Their matches pattern to the blowout facet, with just one profession match going the space – the one one which went over 21.5 video games.

Mirra Andreeva vs Yulia Putintseva Prediction

• Decide: Andreeva -5-5 (-130)

Russian Mirra Andreeva has had an amazing run to the yr, with back-to-back wins at Dubai — with notable wins over Iga Swiatek and Elena Rybakina — and Indian Wells, knocking off no. 1 seed Aryna Sabalenka, no. 2 Swiatek and no. 7 Rybakina en path to that title.

Survives the early scare!

2024 semifinalist Mirra Andreeva hits 25 winners to beat Cristina Bucsa 6-4, 6-3 within the first spherical of the French Open.

Her first-serve common pace was at an unimaginable 181km/h!

It will likely be her first profession match towards Kazakhstan’s Yulia Putintseva. Apart from a semifinal loss to Jessica Pegula at Adelaide, the 30-year-old has been out of third Spherical only one different time, in a small match at Parma.

Andreeva’s clay season has been respectable. After an upset loss in Spherical 2 at Stuttgart, she’s hit the quarterfinals in each Madrid and Rome, solely to be bounced by Coco Gauff.

I feel she makes fast work of Putintseva Saturday.
