Clara Tauson vs Karolina Muchova Prediction
Clara Tauson has arguably been the revelation this week in Dubai and she followed up her straight-sets win over world number one Aryan Sabalenka with another straight-sets win over Linda Noskova in the quarters. It was far from one-sided however as the first set was tight and Tauson just won the key moments to run out 7-6 6-4 winner.
She now takes on Karolina Muchova who got past Sorana Cirstea in her quarter and that win was a fraction more comfortable. She won 6-2 7-5 but she was better than Cirstea in most areas and fully deserved the win.
Interestingly, the pair have never met before so there is no measuring stick from that perspective. Tauson has started 2025 in fine form and she arguably is the one with momentum behind her. Muchova has the experience and it feels like she is improving by the tournament right now.
We do not have a particularly strong leaning to either player coming into this one. If pushed, we would probably edge Muchova’s experience but we think this goes all the way and to a deciding set.
Clara Tauson vs Karolina Muchova Tip: Over 2.5 sets
