Mirra Andreeva vs Maya Joint Preview

Mirra Andreeva is through to her second quarterfinal of the season, backing up her last eight finish in Brisbane by reaching the quarterfinal in Adelaide with a strong performance. Andreeva received a bye in the first round and kicked off the tournament with a second-round win over Marie Bouzkova.

Andreeva took about 70 minutes to defeat the unseeded Czech in straight sets, with the match taking 16 games to decide. Andreeva trailed 1-3 in the opening set, but won five games in a row to turn the score around. In the second set, Andreeva hardly gave away a point on serve and broke Bouzkova three times. Andreeva hit 2 aces and 2 double faults in the victory. She landed 71% of first serves in play and won 76% of first serve points (26/34). She saved one of two break points in the match.

Maya Joint went 0-2 at the United Cup over a week ago, but she’s picked up two wins in Adelaide to get off the mark. Making her debut appearance at this event, the 19-year-old started the week by maintaining her 100% winning record against Sofia Kenin.

Joint secured her third straight sets win over the former Australian Open champion. Joint needed four set points to wrap up the first set in a tiebreak and fought back from a 1-4 deficit in the second set to win 6-4.

Joint earned a retirement win over compatriot Ajla Tomljanovic in the second round. Tomljanovic led 2-0 after 17 minutes, but was unable to continue because of a shoulder injury.

Mirra Andreeva vs Maya Joint Prediction

These two players were born just one year apart. Andreeva is the younger of the two and, at 18, has enjoyed a rapid rise into the upper echelons of the sport. Joint’s progress wasn’t quite as explosive, but she’s now part of the world’s top 40 after a fine breakout season in 2025. Andreeva is still vastly superior, though, with a better ranking and all round game.
