THE PREDICTION

World number three Coco Gauff suffered a shock defeat to Katerina Siniakova at the Qatar Masters last week but she is resilient to bounce back straight away in this opening clash with Elisabetta Cocciaretto. World number 58 Cocciaretto came back from a set down to stun Elise Mertens on Sunday on the second wind momentum so often enjoyed by lucky losers, having lost to Bernarda Pera in qualifying this weekend, but the Italian has failed to win back-to-back matches on tour since claiming her maiden WTA title at the Lausanne Ladies Open last July. 19-year-old Gauff’s forehand fell apart in the wind in Doha last week but she should be better for a leveller after her tough run to the semi-finals of the Australian Open last month. The suitably cautious call here, however, is backing the American to win in three sets with her opponent playing with house money.

TIP: COCO GAUFF TO WIN
