Prediction :
Over 20.5 games to be played
Round three at Roland Garros sees two unseeded players battling it out for a place in the last 16. Hailey Baptiste takes on Jessica Bouzas Maneiro in this outdoor clay court Grand Slam. Time for our match prediction.
Whoever wins this match will face either 7th seed Madison Keys or 31st-seeded Sofia Kenin in round four.
Hailey Baptiste is in the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time. Reaching this stage at Roland Garros has seen the American climb to a career-high 64th in the live rankings. This week has seen her defeat 23rd seed Beatriz Haddad Maia (after losing the first set) and qualifier Nao Hibino.
This is the 22-year-olds second match against Maneiro, the other was won by the Spaniard but was played on a hard court. Two tie-breaks were played in that match so a side bet on one here might be profitable.
Jessica Bouzas Maneiro is up to 58th in the live rankings, six places below her career-high. The 23-year-old is also in her first Roland Garros third round.
Maneiro began this tournament in great style, beating ninth-seeded Emma Navarro and losing just one game. Then three sets were needed to defeat Robin Montgomery. We tip over 20.5 games to be played in this match.
