It was the start of a three match losing streak, Gauff suffering early exits in Qatar and Doha. She was unable to reach the quarters in Indian Wells and Miami, ousted by Belinda Bencic and Magda Linette.

The 29-year-old dropped to World No. 6 after a 6-0 6-4 defeat to Liudmila Samsonova in the fourth round in Indian Wells. Paolini rallied past Naomi Osaka on her way to the semi-finals in Miami, losing 6-2 6-2 to Aryna Sabalenka in her first encounter against a Top 20 player this year.

Transitioning to clay in Stuttgart, the Italian dispatched wildcards Eva Lys 6-2 6-1 and Jule Niemeier 6-1 7-5.

Verdict

Coco Gauff v Jasmine Paolini

Coco Gauff has shown she can compete on clay and Jasmine Paolini has to be respected in Stuttgart. I am avoiding the short odds on Gauff and backing over 21.5 games.
