THE PREDICTION

20-year-old Julia Riera will set a new career-high WTA world ranking of around 184th after blasting past Kristina Mladenovic, winning her first tour-level match on her debut. The Argentine has nothing to lose in this round of 16 clash with Mayar Sherif but the Egyptian should be way too steep of a challenge at this stage, particularly with the backing of a partisan crowd in Morocco. 27-year-old Sherif claimed her maiden WTA title at the Emilia-Romagna Open late last season and she produced a career-best run to the quarter-finals of the Madrid Open earlier this month, taking the first set from eventual champion Aryna Sabalenka before defeat. Sherif also coasted through her first round match in Rabat and the third seed looks a genuine title contender this week. Back the Egyptian to win in straight sets.
