Iga Swiatek, who dismantled Magda Linette 6-1, 6-1 in their first meeting in Beijing almost three years ago, eyes another surgical win against her fellow Pole in the second round of the 2026 Miami Open.
Current Form:
Iga Swiatek enters her fifth tournament of the year, the Miami Open, still without a title after coming up short in each of these events. Now ranked No.3 in the world, Swiatek will be defending 215 points for being a quarterfinalist in last year’s tourney. The Pole owns a solid 12-5 record, but she is only 1-4 against top-20 opponents this year.
Testing Swiatek’s mettle is countrywoman, Magda Linette, who arranged a second showdown with Swiatek by grinding out a three-set win over Varvara Gracheva 2-6, 6-2, 6-0. Linette has six career wins over top-5 opponents; therefore, she’s not the type of player Swiatek should underestimate.

Our Magda Linette vs Iga Swiatek Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Iga Swiatek blasts Magda Linette 6-2, 6-3
Swiatek should take care of her business against Linette, who could only win two games in her first and only duel with the top-rate Pole at the 2023 Beijing Open.
Swiatek might not be the dominant player that we knew 3-4 years ago, but she’s still a top-3 caliber player capable of dismantling lowly-ranked players like Linette when her game is on. Following another setback at Indian Wells, Swiatek is coming in more motivated than ever to produce a stellar run in Miami.
I expect Linette to put up some challenge in the opening set before Swiatek gets into her groove and completely rips her apart.
Our betting prediction for Iga Swiatek vs. Magda Linette: Iga Swiatek -6.5 games
