THE PREDICTION
World number 24 Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova continued here excellent 2024 form with a brilliant comeback over Beatriz Haddad-Maia on Sunday. The 32-year-old missed the best part of a year rehabilitating a recurring knee injury in 2022 but a run to the quarter-finals at Roland-Garros just a few tournaments after her return last Spring was proof that she was serious about a return to the top 20.
World number 32 Marta Kostyuk certainly possesses the game to break inside the top 20 herself sooner rather than later and she came back from a set down to upset Pavlyuchenkova at the San Diego Open two weeks ago, although a defeat to Katie Boulter in the final was a surprise. The 21-year-old avoided a tough scrap with Marketa Vondrousova when the Czech pulled out of their third round clash at late notice to see her well-rested ahead of this intriguing rematch with the Russian and she will be determined to represent her war-torn Ukraine well on this huge tennis stage in the desert, although that comes with all the added pressures. Back Pavlyuchenkova to earn at least a set to leave the victor up to chance.
TIP: ANASTASIA PAVLYUCHENKOVA TO WIN A SET
