Defending champion Iga Swiatek is one win away from her first singles final of 2025. The second seed faces ninth-seeded Mirra Andreva in the last four at Indian Wells. Here’s our match prediction.

Not since Martina Navratilova in 1991 has a player successfully defended this outdoor hard court title. Swiatek has been in top form in this tournament with her four matches all won in straight sets. Thursday saw her defeat eighth-seeded Qinwen Zheng 6-3 6-3. Only 12 games have been dropped by Swiatek on her way to this semi-final.

Ninth seed Mirra Andreeva had never reached the last eight of this tournament before this year. The 17-year-old has already won the Dubai Tennis Championships this year and has won her last ten matches with only one set dropped. The run includes a straight sets win over Swiatek in Dubai. The teenager has not dropped a set in this tournament and has had wins over Clara Tauson, Elena Rybakina and in the last eight, Elina Svitolina.

The recent match in Dubai was the second meeting between these two players. The other was played last year and Swiatek came from a set down to win in three. We tip over 19.5 games to be played in this match.
