THE PREDICTION
World number nine Ons Jabeur won her most prestigious of five career titles here in Madrid two years ago but after a golden period across the past two summers she brings a considerable amount of uncertainty into this draw. The 29-year-old should probably have taken a spell away from the sport earlier this season, practically playing injured on the Middle East swing in an admirable but likely damaging desire to turn out for her huge following there, but recent performances on clay have offered some hope that she is building some fitness.
A three-set exit to eventual champion Danielle Collins in Charleston was followed by an impressive comeback over Ekaterina Alexandrova in Stuttgart that snapped a five-match losing streak and if she can find that level she should make the third round here. World number 68 Anna-Karolina Schmiedlova is no pushover on her favoured clay but she will have to find her best to beat Jabeur, and an adoring partisan crowd in Madrid, on Thursday. Take the Tunisian to boost some confidence with a straight-sets win here.
TIP: ONS JABEUR TO WIN 2-0
