Leylah Fernandez vs Martina Trevisan preview
Leylah Fernandez and Martina Trevisan came through hard-fought encounters in the fourth round on Sunday to set up a quarter-final showdown.
Fernandez, the 17th seed, needed just under two hours to fend off the big-hitting Amanda Anisimova. The Canadian showcased her incredible range of shotmaking and scrambling abilities to eke out a 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 win.
Add solid wins over Belinda Bencic and Kristina Mladenovic to the mix and Fernandez begins to emerge as a legitimate contender for the title.
Trevisan, meanwhile, managed to eke out a 7-6(10), 7-5 win over Aliaksandra Sasnovich in her previous match. The Italian played aggressively and did not allow her opponent to feel comfortable at any point.
Trevisan is now on a nine-match winning streak, having also lifted the trophy at a WTA event in Morocco, where she scored wins over the likes of Garbine Muguruza and Claire Liu. Needless to say, she will enter the quarter-final contest high on confidence.

Leylah Fernandez vs Martina Trevisan prediction
Fernandez did not have a lot of match wins on clay heading into the French Open, but she has managed to turn things around in Paris. The youngster's lethal forehand has proven to be a potent weapon on the red dirt. She has also been impressive on return.
The Canadian's aggressive positioning has seen her generate as many as 23 break points in her last two matches. She has, however, been a bit wasteful with the opportunities, winning only about 50%. She might need to improve that stat against the tenacious Martina Trevisan.
The Italian has looked a completely different player from when she made her first quarterfinal here in Paris two years ago. She has replaced her counterpunching style of play with a newfound aggression. Her willingness to take the ball early—especially off the forehand wing—has been key to her success.
In the form of Fernandez, she faces an opponent who plays with controlled power and aggression. With comparatively less power to feed off, the Italian will need to find a way to generate her own power.
She will also have to protect her vulnerable second serve and find a way to keep Fernandez on the run or else the Canadian will end up seizing control of the baseline and the contest.
Pick: Fernandez to win in three sets
