Preliminary review and match prediction for Aryna Sabalenka vs Zhang Shuai
Aryna Sabalenka:
Last week in Madrid, Aryna Sabalenka failed to defend her points for the 2021 title. Immediately there was a drop in the rankings. As of today, Aryna is only the eighth racket in the world. In Rome, she needs to defend the 1/8 finals, in case of another failure the tennis player risks leaving the top 10.

It should be noted that right after Madrid’s defeat from Anisimova (2-6, 6-3, 4-6), Sabalenka came to Rome and is now in the Italian capital to prepare for the tournament. Clearly, her motivation is very high.
Zhang Shuai:
Zhang Shuai has not shone on the clay throughout her long career. Interestingly, she now has exactly 86 wins and the same number of losses on this surface.
