Tamara Zidansek vs Paula Badosa Gibert: Preview
The Slovenian comes into this round after seeing off the challenge of Sorona Cristea in straight sets in the fourth round. Zidansek also beat the former US Open winner Bianca Andreescu to kick off her 2021 French Open in the opening round. The 23-year-old has been solid from the baseline in this tournament, using her heavy topspin forehands to trouble her opponents. She started the clay season with a final appearance in Bogota. She has never been at this stage of a Major before and it will be interesting to see how she handles the situation going ahead.
On the other hand, the Spaniard comes into this round after having outlasted the former French Open finalist Marketa Vondrousova in three sets in in the fourth round. The 23-year-old has enjoyed great success on the clay this season, winning 17 matches out of 19 outings. After reaching the semis in Charleston, Badosa also made the semis in Madrid, where she lost to World No.1 Ash Barty. Later, she also excelled in Belgrade, before coming into the French Open. She will be keen to make her maiden semifinal appearance at the 2021 French Open.

Tamara Zidansek vs Paula Badosa Gibert: Prediction
Both players will be feeling their nerves as they haven’t been at this stage of a Grand Slam before. Expect a close contest given their solid play from the baseline. However, Badosa is experiencing a great time on the clay this season and might just have the answers to hit through the defense of her opponent to make her semifinal appearance in Paris.
Match Prediction: Paula Badosa should win in three sets.
