Malygina shows a stronger recent second serve performance and a better overall match win rate over the last year, suggesting an improved competitive edge.

However, Raggi has proven more resilient under pressure and generally performs better on hard surfaces, which may influence the upcoming match significantly if it takes place on that surface.

Their direct head-to-head history favors Raggi, who has not only won their prior meeting but did so convincingly. Success in breakpoints and a higher deciding set win percentage also add to Raggi's strengths.

While both players bring different strengths to the court, the combination of historical dominance and key advantage points make Raggi a more likely contender for victory in their next encounter.
