Jessica Pegula
The American athlete performs well at home tournaments, having won the title in Austin, reaching the fourth round in Indian Wells, where she lost to Svitolina. Pegula is an experienced and strong tennis player, 31 years old, currently ranked fourth in the world.

Alexandra Eala
The main sensation of the tournament has made a loud statement by having already knocked out two players from the top 10. Eala herself is ranked 140th in the world, but after this tournament, she will firmly secure a spot in the top 100.
Eala began her journey by defeating Katie Volynets 6-3, 7-6, then managed to beat Jelena Ostapenko 7-6, 7-5. A notable victory was over the world's fifth-ranked player and the last Australian Open winner Madison Keys 6-4, 6-2. There was no subsequent match as Badosa withdrew from the tournament. In the quarter-finals, there was a loud victory over the second-ranked player in the world, Iga Swiatek 6-2, 7-5. The 19-year-old girl's fairy tale continues, and she is capable of defeating Pegula as well.

Match Prediction
The two players have never played against each other, which is understandable as Eala has played little at this level. Although Pegula is a big favorite, the Philippine tennis player is clearly on a roll and does not intend to finish this tournament. It's also worth noting that the American is 11 years older than her opponent. We expect an exciting contest and will take a risk by betting on a total of more than 19.5 games.
