Command Analysis

Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova

Current form
Pavlyuchenkova successfully proved herself at the Australian Open, where she managed to make it to the quarterfinals. She was followed by a tournament in Abu Dhabi, when she played against today's opponent Lynette in the second round and was unable to finish the meeting due to injury. After a long pause, Anastasia performed at Indian Wells, and at the start of that tournament she could not match Samsonova (2-6, 2-6). Obviously, the Russian tennis player still needs time to get in the right shape.
Professional qualities
Anastasia is a very diverse tennis player, she knows how to tactically correctly adjust to the manner of her rivals' game. There is a decent first serve in the arsenal, but Pavlyuchenkova often lacks speed when moving on the back line.
Current indicators in the tour
In 2025, Pavlyuchenkova won five matches in the tour and suffered four defeats. It should be noted that she won four of her five victories at the Australian Open. In Miami, the 47th racket of the world needs to defend the ranking points for last year's third round.

Magda Linette

Current form
Lynette has not had much success during the season, the most she has been able to do is go through two rounds each in Abu Dhabi and Doha. At the last Indian Wells competition, the Polish tennis player beat Stearns at the start (6-4, 4-6, 6-3), after which she lost to Pegula (4-6, 2-6). She doesn't need to defend her ranking points on the Miami courts, as she was eliminated in the first round by Tsurenko last year.
Professional qualities
Magda is one of those tennis players who always try to shoot powerfully from the back with flat strokes. Defensively, she is quite reliable, with the speed of movement on the court everything is in perfect order.

The Polish tennis player has seven wins in 15 matches since the beginning of the year. At the moment, Lynette is the 34th racket of the world, and her best career achievement is 19th place in the world ranking.

2.24Tip and bets
Pavlyuchenkova had an injury, after which she played only one match against Samsonova and could not show anything in the game. We do not think that at the moment Anastasia deserves the status of the favorite that the bookmakers have given her. Of course, Lynette doesn't have enough stars from the sky for the season, but she keeps herself in good shape, consistently overcomes one or two rounds at tournaments. It is worth using a solid coefficient in this pair and placing a bet on the victory of the Polish tennis player.
Our prediction is that Lynette will win with a coefficient of 2.35

In Indian Wells, Pavlyuchenkova took only four games against Samsonova. Anastasia is clearly far from her optimal form right now, and the upcoming meeting is unlikely to take too long.
The second bet is a total of less than 21 games in 1.92
Bet on the second set
It should be noted that in three of the last five matches of the Polish tennis player, more than nine games were not played in the second game. In the betting tip, we expect that Magda will confidently put the squeeze on Anastasia in this segment of the game.
