In Doha, on Sunday, the world number one will get back down to business, and she'll begin her campaign at this event with a very winnable match against Linda Noskova. The Czech competitor can be very strong, and she is the world number eight, but she's not been seen for over a month, which is far from ideal preparation ahead of a match against the best in the business. Returning with anything other than a defeat against Rybakina seems unlikely.
Given that Linda Noskova hasn't stepped onto the court competitively in over a month, and given the poor record of the Czech player in this match, Elena Rybakina should be a stronger favorite. At odds of +120, the world number one is absolutely worth betting on to come out on top in straight sets. When the pair last met, Rybakina made light work of winning in straight sets.

Our Elena Rybakina vs Linda Noskova Prediction
The fact that Linda Noskova has not played competitively in more than month is not to be ignored. Quite simply, you cannot come back from such a spell on the sidelines and expect to seriously ruffle the feathers of the world number one, who has made light work of winning in straight sets in recent weeks, winning each of her last three matches without dropping a set.
Rybakina did have an injury issue in Tokyo, but that was only a week ago, plus it was reported as precautionary more than anything. Throw into the mix her three straight-set wins over Noskova and the Kazakh player simply looks too generously priced. Value bettors should take her to win this without needing a third set at anything above -105.
