Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Jessica Pegula Prediction & Picks - WTA Miami

 by Bradley Gibbs | in Tennis Picks

On Wednesday, things really start to hot up at the WTA event in Miami. Following her surprise win against world number one Iga Swiatek, Ekaterina Alexandrova continues pushing for what would be a fifth WTA title as she takes on Jenny Pegula in the quarter-finals. The American is a clear favourite in the betting, but after that excellent showing against the best player in the world last time out, the Russian is hard to ignore, especially at eye-catching odds of +163.

Our Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Jessica Pegula Prediction

We know how good Pegula can be, there's no denying that. She's number five in the WTA rankings for good reason, but it's very hard to agree with her strong market supremacy here. Alexandrova, as the world number 16, is no back number and she's also no stranger to beating the best. Not only did she defeat world number one Iga Swiatek in straight sets to reach this stage, but she's also beaten world number four Elena Rybakina in recent months, so we know she can beat the best. Pegula is also no stranger to losing matches of this nature, losing three of her last eight. That win against Swiatek should have the Russian well prepped for this and with what can only be sky-high confidence on her side, she looks a nice bet to extend her stay in Miami.
