There is a packed WTA schedule for Day 4 in Miami. Amanda Anisimova will be one of the most high-profile players to step onto the court for her opening match. All the other matches, including Coco Gauff vs Elisabetta Cocciaretto<\/a>, Aryna Sabalenka vs Ann Li<\/a>, Elena Rybakina vs Yulia Putintseva<\/a>, Jessica Pegula vs Francesca Jones<\/a>, Naomi Osaka vs Talia Gibson, and Madison Keys vs Elena-Gabriela Ruse<\/a>, are predicted in our other articles.<\/p>\n

WTA Miami Day 4 Predictions
\nMaria Sakkari vs Alycia Parks<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: Parks 1-0 Sakkari<\/p>\n

Sakkari will almost certainly need her return game to work well against Parks\u2019s powerful serve. Although the Greek\u2019s results this season have been mixed, her return has generally excelled in 2026. I expect Parks, who ended a four-match losing streak in the previous round, to compete well, but for Sakkari to end as the winner.
Prediction: Sakkari in 3<\/p>\n

Jelena Ostapenko vs Dayana Yastremska<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: Ostapenko 2-1 Yastremska<\/p>\n

Yastremska will face one of the few WTA players whose style is more aggressive than her own in this matchup. Ostapenko uses the same ultra-attacking game against every opponent. The Latvian\u2019s matches are challenging to predict because her level fluctuates, but I feel she will come through this matchup because Yastremska is not naturally adept at redirecting her opponent\u2019s pace.
Prediction: Ostapenko in 2<\/p>\n

Elina Svitolina vs Emerson Jones<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: First meeting<\/p>\n

Jones will need to recover quickly from her grueling 3-6 7-6 7-6 victory against Linda Fruhvirtova on Thursday evening. It took a great deal of mental and physical energy to win that match, which had several twists and turns. That means the rock-solid Svitolina is not an ideal opponent less than 24 hours later. Expect the Ukrainian veteran to handle this challenge.
Prediction: Svitolina in 2<\/p>\n

Amanda Anisimova vs Ajla Tomljanovic<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: Tomljanovic 2-0 Anisimova<\/p>\n

These two last met in 2021, meaning the head-to-head will have no bearing on this match because of Anisimova\u2019s development since. Tomljanovic\u2019s most formidable shot is her backhand, and she tries to dominate with that shot. Unfortunately for the Australian, Anisimova\u2019s backhand is arguably the best in women\u2019s tennis. I do not foresee an upset here.
Prediction: Anisimova in 2<\/p>\n
