Hailey Baptiste's superb run in Madrid has seen her reach the semis, where she faces ninth seed Mirra Andreeva. The winner of their first career meeting will advance to the Madrid final for the first time. Read on for our prediction of this match.

Hailey Baptiste has been the surprise package in Madrid and has placed herself with a real shot at the title. The American has fought against the odds to make it to the last four and is coming off one of the big wins of the year and her career.

Baptiste shocked top seed and defending champion Aryna Sabalenka in the quarter-finals. She won in three sets to mark her first-ever win over a world number one opponent.

Baptiste, who is now up eight places to 24th in the live ranking, has defeated two top 10 players so far in Madrid. Another such win here will see her make a tour final for the first time.

Mirra Andreeva has been in this stage before and will count on her experience to outwit an opponent full of confidence. The teenage sensation is a five-time tour champion.

Two of her titles were in WTA 1000 events, while another two have been achieved on clay. A winner of two events already in 2026, Andreeva has been one of the in-form players this term.

She has won 25 of 32 fixtures and is 11-1 on clay. The 18-year-old, who is up to seventh in the live ranking, defeated Leylah Fernandez in straight sets in the last round. She also defeated Baptiste when they last met, also in straights.
