Belinda Bencic, the 12th seed at the Miami Open, will play 20th seed Diana Shnaider in the third round. This is their second meeting at a WTA 1000 event. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Shnaider defeated Tereza Valentova in two hard-fought sets in the second round. Both sets saw a tiebreaker needed. The Russian is having a not-so-convincing season.
She has won eight times so far but hasn’t been able to win more than two matches in a row in five of six events. A semi-finalist in Adelaide earlier in the year, Shnaider arrived in Miami having won just once in five outings.
Advancing to the third round after consecutive second-round exits has seen the 21-year-old move up to 19th in the live ranking.
Belinda Bencic ousted Shnaider from last year’s Indian Wells edition in the third round. She won in straight sets and will hope for a similar outcome as she seeks her first title in Miami.
The Swiss star is a former semi-finalist in this event, achieving the feat in 2022. To set up this latest matchup with Shnaider, Bencic, the world number 12, defeated Zeynep Sonmez in straight sets.
She has now won 10 of the 13 matches she has contested this year.
