THE PREDICTION

Neither world number 70 Tatjana Maria or number 63 Jasmine Paolini brings entirely convincing form into this first round clash but both have reached quarter-finals on tour recently, with Maria making the last eight at the Hua Hin Championships and Paolini doing so at the Lyon Open. This first meeting at tour-level between the two seems likely to need a decider but it is difficult to back anything with full confidence. The slow hardcourt conditions at Indian Wells will probably better-suit Paolini and so taking the Italian to earn at least a set seems the most sensible way to lean here, although leaving this match out of an accumulator is the wisest move.
