Unseeded Emma Raducanu looks to build on her big second round win in the Miami Open. The British player takes on unseeded McCartney Kessler in round three of this outdoor hard court tournament. Here's our match prediction.
Round two saw Raducanu defeat the eighth seed Emma Navarro in three sets, losing the middle one. That was achieved despite a lengthy time receiving treatment for a foot injury. The win took the 22-year-old to 54th in the live rankings. In the WTA Live Race, Raducanu is 63rd.
This is only the second time in 2025 that Raducanu has won two successive matches in a tournament, the other being in the Australian Open. Not since last year's Wimbledon has she won three in a row.
McCartney Kessler has had a consistent 2025 and is 20th in the Live Race. In the overall live rankings, the American is a career-high 42nd. This year has seen her win the title in Hobart and recently reach the ATX Open final.
Kessler has beaten Marie Bouzkova and Linda Noskova to reach this third round. Both matches went to a final set with Kessler needing to come from behind to get the win over Noskova.
We go for over 20.5 games to be played in this match.
