Iga Swiatek vs Karolina Muchova Prediction

You fear the worst for Muchova here when it comes to the final scoreline. Here's the scary stat. Swiatek has won each of her last eight matches in Indian Wells in straight sets. Five of the 16 sets she has played and won are bagel sets (6-0). She has also not dropped more than four games in a set in that time. The size of Muchova's task is near impossible. But look, she was in this situation before, most notably in the 2023 Roland Garros final and she almost did the unthinkable. I reckon she'll put in a much better performance than all of Swiatek's last eight opponents in this tournament, but victory will just be beyond reach.
