Diana Shnaider vs Tereza Valentova prediction
Diana Shnaider has just the one victory from her last five matches. Her singles campaign at Indian Wells was short-lived, as she lost to Sorana Cirstea in straight sets. Shnaider did begin the season with a semi-final finish in Adelaide but the results have dried up since her third-round appearance at the Australian Open.
She faces Tereza Valentova in round two of Miami after receiving a bye. The teenager ended a run of three matches without a win after defeating Katie Volynets in the first-round. Valentova was in control of this encounter, conceding just the one break point as she won 6-2 6-4 after one hour and 22 minutes.
Shnaider is the favourite and her fast-paced style should suit the conditions, though she is yet to make a breakthrough in the past editions of this event. Valentova is a young talent and should be worth at least a set in this second-round match.
