THE PREDICTION
World number 39 Marie Bouzkova has struggled to find any sort of consistent level on tour for some time but there have been encouraging signs, with a quarter-final exit at the Auckland Classic seeing an excellent result over the returning Amanda Anisimova. The 25-year-old reached the third round here last season before defeat to Aryna Sabalenka but it may take a change in surface to recalibrate her counter-punching game after a largely poor hardcourt swing. World number 63 Lin Zhu brings a four-match losing streak into Miami after a gut-wrenching defeat to Diana Shnaider in the final of the Hua Hin Championships, where she was defending champion, last month. One win since that disappointment suggests the Chinese is the lower of two players lacking confidence here so ack Bouzkova to earn at least a set with the better recent results. Leave this tough one far from any accumulators.
TIP: MARIE BOUZKOVA TO WIN A SET
