Elena Ostapenko
Ostapenko has been showing good results this season and currently ranks among the top ten strongest tennis players in the world. However, her performances on clay have not been the best. She was eliminated in the first round in Stuttgart, and in Madrid, she was unable to advance beyond the quarterfinals, losing to Ons Jabeur. In Rome, Elena defeated Potapova, and then won in three sets against Sorribes Tormo and Schmiedlova.
Aryna Sabalenka
Sabalenka continues to chase Iga Swiatek but is still far from her best form, although her recent results have improved. In Madrid, Aryna played well, but suffered a disappointing defeat in the final match against the world number one. In Rome, Sabalenka started with a tough victory over Kateryna Volynets, and then successively defeated two Ukrainian players, Dayana Yastremska and Elina Svitolina.

Elena Ostapenko - Aryna Sabalenka Prediction
Sabalenka currently appears stronger than her upcoming opponent, so there are grounds to bet on her victory. I believe that a bet on Sabalenka's success with a -2.5 handicap should confidently play out.
