World number 140 Alexandra Eala bids to cause another upset in the Miami Open. Round two sees the wild card take on 25th-seeded Jelena Ostapenko. Who will reach the third round of this WTA 1000 tournament? Read our match prediction.
Eala had a straight sets win over Katie Volynets in the first round of this outdoor hard court tournament. The 19-year-old from the Philippines is up to a new career-high of 132nd. A win over Ostapenko will see the winner face either fifth seed Madison Keys or Elena Avanesyan in round three.
The teenager has had success on the ITF Tour this year, reaching a quarter-final in Canberra two months ago.
Jelena Ostapenko has had an up and down 2025 so far. Only once has she made it past the second round of a WTA tournament this year. That was in Doha where the world number 25 was the losing finalist.
That week saw her get wins over Jasmine Paolini, Ons Jabeur and Iga Swiatek. Her last three matches (including a loss to Amanda Anisimova in the Doha final) have all been lost. Her most recent tournament was in Indian Wells where she lost to Xinyu Wang.
We tip Ostapenko to win this match in straight sets.
