THE PREDICTION

Former world number 19 Karolina Muchova came as close as anyone to beating Elena Rybakina at Indian Wells last time out and she has started the Miami Open in the same rich vein of form, conceding just two games to Jil Teichmann on Wednesday. The current world number 55 looks hell-bent on returning to the top 20 as fast as possible right now and she should be considered a genuine title threat as a player who was capable of beating Ash Barty, in Melbourne, at her best. World number 40 Lin Zhu enjoyed her own incredible run in Melbourne back in January, reaching the round of 16 after also beating Teichmann as well as stunning Maria Sakkari, and she has since excelled at WTA 250 level. The 32nd seed comes in a little cold to what will be a baptism of fire against a fit and firing Muchova, though, so back the Czech to win in straight sets.
