Paula Badosa vs Aryna Sabalenka Prediction & Picks - WTA Miami
by Edgar Jibran | in Tennis Picks
The WTA circuit begins to deliver matches that will be worth remembering at the Miami Masters 1000, being one of those examples the clash between Paula Badosa and Aryna Sabalenka, tennis players who used to share the highest positions of the WTA ranking until Badosa began with frequent injury problems, so the Spanish comes to this match in the 80th position.
Despite this, Paula Badosa should try to take advantage of the great mood left by her victory over Simona Halep (6-1, 4-6, 3-6), although having suffered so much to defeat a player who barely made her official return to the courts is not a good indication of improvement for Badosa after a month of inactivity due to injury.
For her part, Aryna Sabalenka has had a very dual level so far in 2024, since, after being a complete crusher during the Australian Open, she has had terrible performances in Dubai and Indian Wells, managing to win only 1 of her last 4 matches played in straight sets, which was a victory over Emma Raducanu in Indian Wells (3-6, 5-7).
