Suddenly on a hot streak, Emma Raducanu of Great Britain will continue to follow where momentum takes her as she plays Jessica Pegula of the United States on Wednesday for place in the semifinal round of the 2025 Miami Open.

After firing his seventh coach in four years, Raducanu found a breakthrough after clinching her first quarterfinal at a WTA 1000-level tournament. The former US Open winner has displayed exceptional shot-making ability and unflappable mental fortitude to carve her way into the round of eight, eliminating Sayaka Ishhi of Japan 6-2 6-1, No.8 seed Emma Navarro, Mccartney Kessley 6-1 3-0 ret. and No.17 seed Amanda Anisimova 6-1 6-3. On Wednesday, Raducanu will attempt to beat a fourth American opponent in the tournament, though it won’t be an easy one since she will be against the current world’s No.4 and 2024 US Open runner-up Jessica Pegula.

Pegula made it through to the quarterfinal with a clinical 6-2 6-3 win over Marta Kostyuk of Ukraine. The American is eyeing a better result in Miami after coming up short at Indian Wells, where she fell to Elina Svitolina in a hotly-contested fourth-round match 5-7 6-1 6-2 after posting two dominant wins over Magda Linette and Xinyu Wang. Before his quarterfinal-clinching win over Kostyuk, Pegula overcame Anna Kalinskaya in another three-set banger 6-7(3) 6-2 7-6(2) and Bernarda Pera 6-4 6-4.

Our Emma Raducanu vs Jessica Pegula Prediction

Jessica Pegula has won 10 of her last 11 matches heading into her third career faceoff with Emma Raducanu. Pegula, 18-5 in the season, is the consensus choice to win straight up at -220 because of her superior record and better form through the first three months of 2025. On the other hand, Raducanu’s body of work in this tournament should not be overlooked because she earned her way to the quarterfinal round. Raducanu had eliminated three formidable Americans to reach the eighth round while completely dismantling Anisimova, who ended Mirra Andreeva’s 13-match win streak.

Pegula might have some advantage in terms of experience at this level, having won three WTA 1000 trophies. Then again, people often forget that Raducanu is a former Grand Slam winner, and she, too, can play at an elite level especially if everything goes her way. Ultimately, I still think Pegula will grind out a hard-earned win after weathering off a strong challenge from Raducanu.

Our betting prediction for Emma Raducanu vs. Jessica Pegula: Emma Raducanu +3.5 games.
