THE PREDICTION

World number three Jessica Pegula needed three sets to see off a spirited Viktoriya Tomova on Tuesday but the American can be forgiven for a choppy start to her Dubai campaign after losing the Qatar Open final so comprehensively to Iga Swiatek last time out. 28-year-old Pegula finally claimed her maiden WTA Masters title late last season in Guadalajara after making consistent deep runs in her transformative career-best year and she looks set to contend at this level for the foreseeable future. World number 75 Ana Bogdan should not be underestimated after beating in-form Laura Siegemund and Shelby Rogers in straight sets each so far, making it four matches without conceding a set including qualifying in Dubai. Pegula should be better for an early wobble, though, and backing her to win outright looks the suitably cautious approach at this moment even though she should come through in two.
