Seventh seed Emma Navarro takes on unseeded Jelena Ostapenko in round two of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix. The winner goes into the last eight of this indoor clay court tournament. Here's our match prediction.

The quarter-final opponent will be either second seed Iga Swiatek or the qualifier Jana Fett. Navarro was ranked 11th at  the start of this tournament but her first round win over Beatriz Haddad Maia has seen her climb to tenth in the live list.

Only three games were lost in that match, all in the first set. If Navarro can reach the last eight, the American will climb to ninth. This is the second clay court tournament of the year for the 23-year-old, the other saw her get to the last eight in Charleston.

Jelena Ostapenko is the world number 24 but has only won eight of her 17 matches this year. The Latvian also played in Charleston but only won one match. A hard court final in Doha was reached this year but she then lost five of her next six matches.

Ostapenko beat the qualifier Dayana Yastremska in round one. The first set was won 6-3 and her opponent retired when 3-0 down in the second. We tip Navarro to win this match.
