Naomi Osaka vs Jasmine Paolini prediction, H2H and bets - March 24, 2025
Game Prediction
In the fourth round of the prestigious Miami tournament, Naomi Osaka and Jasmine Paolini will face off. Our experts have prepared their betting option for this event.
Naomi Osaka
The former world number one is trying to return to her previous level and is currently showing a decent level of play. In Auckland, the athlete was close to the title, but after winning the first set against Tauson, she withdrew due to injury. At the Australian Open, she reached the third round but also withdrew from her match against Bencic after losing the first set.
In Miami, Osaka started with a tough match against Yuliya Starodubtseva, trailing 3:6, 2:4, but managed to win 6:4, 6:3. She won her second-round match against Liudmila Samsonova 6:2, 6:4, and her last match was a hard-fought victory over Hailey Baptiste 7:6, 3:6, 6:4.
Jasmine Paolini
The Italian athlete is clearly not playing like a top-10 player this year, despite being the world’s seventh-ranked player. This year, Paolini has not won more than two matches in a row.
Her journey in Miami began in the second round thanks to her high seeding. She first defeated Slovakian player Rebecca Sramkova 6:4, 6:4. Then, in the match against Ons Jabeur, she was leading 4:3 when her opponent suffered an injury and withdrew. Paolini does not quite measure up to a top player’s level at this time.
Match Facts
- The Japanese player has played 12 matches this season, winning 9 of them.
- Paolini has won 10 out of 15 matches in the current season.
- The odds for the upcoming match are as follows: P1 - 1.55, P2 - 2.53.
Match Prediction
Despite the Italian being higher in the rankings, Osaka is considered the favorite of the pair, as the odds are influenced by the Japanese player’s reputation and her status as a former world number one. It should be noted that the opponents have never played each other before. I think such a match could be prolonged, so I bet on a total of more than 21.5 games.
