Mirra Andreeva returned with a win at the Madrid Open, after last year, she had her first Top 20 win, and now she hopes to get another one.
The Russian is still a teenager, only 16 years old, and she's developing as a player. Her performances haven't been as sharp this year, at least not until now, but she's still one of the most impressive talents we've seen in recent years.
Her return in Madrid was positive, as she scored two wins, which was huge for her. Marketa Vondrousva bounced back from her Porsche Tennis Grand Prix disappointment with a solid win as well.
It's been a tough year for her, with some difficult challenges in her private life, but she's still pretty solid when she plays tennis. Let's take a look at who might win this match.
Head-to-head:
Andreeva and Vondrousova have never played against each other so far, which isn't a huge surprise. The Czech player has been injured quite often, and the Russian has been around for only about a year. They are both pretty strong players on clay.
Style-wise, this might be a problem for the teenager because she'll have to find something special to win this match. A regular outing won't be enough for her, especially as she's not a power player who will attack Vondrousova. I expect this to be somewhat close but a very tough one for Andreeva.
| Marketa Vondrousova | Mirra Andreeva | |
| 0 | H2H | 0 |
| 7 | Rank | 43 |
| 24 | Age | 16 |
| 9-5 | 2024 W/L | 10-5 |
| 269-115 | Career W/L | 85-23 |
Prediction:
Vondrousova has looked pretty decent upon her comeback, and I expect that to continue. Andreeva is going through that slump right now, and I don't really expect her to get out of it in this matchup. The Czech player is a bit too experienced and too solid to lose this match.
Prediction: Marketa Vondrousova to win in two sets.
